The Lord's Approved Workman

1 Therefore thou, my son, be comforted in (the) grace that is in Christ Jesus. (And so, my son, be thou strengthened by the grace that is ours in the Messiah Jesus.) 2 And what things thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, betake thou these to faithful men, which shall be able also to teach other men. (And those things that thou hast heard from me, in the presence of many witnesses, deliver them to the faithful, or share them with the faithful, who then shall be able to also teach others.) 3 Travail thou as a good knight of Christ Jesus. (Labour thou, or Endure, like a good soldier of the Messiah Jesus.) 4 No man holding knighthood to God, [en]wrappeth himself with worldly needs, (so) that he please to him, to whom he hath proved himself. 5 For he that fighteth in a battle, shall not be crowned, [no] but he fight lawfully. 6 It behooveth an earth-tiller to receive (the) first of the fruits. 7 Understand thou what things I say. For the Lord shall give to thee understanding in all things.

8 Be thou mindful, that the Lord Jesus Christ of the seed of David hath risen again from death [+that the Lord Jesus Christ of the seed of David hath risen again from (the) dead], after my gospel, (Remember, that the Lord Jesus Christ of the seed of David hath risen again from the dead, according to my Gospel, or my Good News,) 9 in which I travail unto bonds, as (if) working evil, but the word of God is not bound. 10 Therefore I suffer, (or I sustain), all things for the chosen (ones), that also they get the health that is in Christ Jesus, with heavenly glory. (And so I endure everything for the chosen ones, so that they also get the salvation that is in the Messiah Jesus, yea, along with heavenly glory.)

11 A true word [is this that I say], that if we be dead together [to the world], also we shall live together [in bliss];

12 if we suffer (or if we sustain), we shall reign together [with Christ] (if we endure, we shall reign together with the Messiah); if we deny [him], he shall deny us;

13 if we believe not, he dwelleth faithful, he may not deny himself. (if we do not believe, he remaineth faithful, for he cannot deny himself.)

14 Teach thou these things, witnessing before God. Do not thou strive in words; for to nothing it is profitable, [no] but to the subverting of men that hear (it). (Teach these things, testifying before God. And do not argue; because it is profitable for nothing, but to the undermining of those who hear it.) 15 Busily keep, (or Take care), to give thyself (as) a proved, praiseable workman to God, without shame, rightly treating the word of truth. (Work hard to make thyself an approved, praiseworthy workman for God, without shame, correctly proclaiming the Word of Truth.) 16 But eschew thou, (or shun), unholy and vain, (or empty and useless), speeches, for why those profit much to unfaithfulness, 17 and the word of them creepeth as a canker. Of whom Philetus is, and Hymenaeus, 18 which felled down from the truth, saying that the rising-again is now done (saying that the resurrection hath happened already), and they subverted, (or they turned upside-down), the faith of some men. 19 But the firm foundament of God standeth, having this mark, The Lord knoweth which be his, and, Each man that nameth the name of the Lord, departeth from wickedness. (But the firm foundation of God standeth, having this sign, or this inscription, The Lord knoweth whom be his, and, Each man who nameth the name of the Lord, goeth away from wickedness.)

20 But in a great house be not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of tree, and of earth (but also of wood, and of clay); and so some be into honour, and some into despite. 21 Therefore, if any man cleanseth himself from these, he shall be a vessel hallowed into honour, and profitable to the Lord, ready to (do) all good work. 22 And flee thou [the] desires of youth, but follow thou rightwiseness, faith, charity, (or love), (and) peace, with them that inwardly call the Lord of a clean heart [with them that in-call the Lord of a clean heart] (with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart). 23 And eschew thou, (or shun), foolish questions, and without knowing, (or without knowledge, or without discipline), witting that those (en)gender chidings. 24 But it behooveth the servant of the Lord to chide not; but to be mild to all men (but to be meek and humble with all men), able to teach, patient, 25 with temperance reproving them that against-stand the truth, that sometime God give to them repenting, (or penance), (so) that they know the truth, 26 and that they rise again from the snares of the devil, of whom they be held prisoners at his will (by whom they be held prisoners by his desire). — 2 Timothy 2 | Wycliffe's Bible (WYC) The Wycliffe Bible is in the public domain.

The steep price of purity of heart

The steep price of purity of heart

Today we will be looking at the core Bible principle of holiness, and how God has outlined a refining process for every individual who is seeking holiness and purity of heart. 2 Timothy 2:22 – Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. As Timothy was a young leader within the Yeshua movement of Judaism, Paul…

2 TIMOTHY S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 2

Monday, 9/9/24

SCRIPTURE:

Run away from adolescent cravings. Instead, pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace together with those who confess the Lord with a clean heart. ~ 2 Timothy 2:22

OBSERVATION:

Adolescent/adolescence:

transitioning between childhood and adulthood...

rebellious, distracted, thoughtless...

pursuing irresponsible activities...

self-focused...

In other words - Grow up...

Pursue:

following in order to overtake

strive to gain or accomplish something

try to achieve a goal or objective

Running away from - fleeing - the one thing doesn't mean I can't pursue the others... 

But failure to run away from it means I'm probably not pursing the others...

...since the one remains immature, and the others lead to maturity - 

in faith,

in grace,

in Christ...

APPLICATION:

Run away from adolescent cravings...

Pursue:

righteousness

faith

love

peace

Confess the Lord with a clean heart...

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father - I admit there are too many times when I fall back into an adolescent faith - to failing to do what I know is what You would have me do - I am thankful for Your strength providing grace through Jesus that allows me to stop and grow up by surrendering my willfulness to Your perfect will... In Jesus's Name, and for Your glory and praise...

Joyfully yours - in Him...

Polygamy in Hebrew and Greek Scriptures: The Truth About Patriarchs' Marriages

Polygamy is NOT in the Bible. 1 Timothy 3 says one wife. It frustrates me when bible believing men go out of context and pattern. Abraham had one wife at a time. Hagar was under Sarai's control and it was a one-time event with Abram.

Po.lyg.a.my noun – the practice or custom of having more than one wife or husband at the same time. Who are wives? Who are concubines? Is polygamy practiced today because Abraham, Ya’cov and David, did it? But did they, do it? We know Solomon did as he is the King of ‘The Torah Take Down.’ Let’s look at the words in Greek and Hebrew and who is called a wife and who is called a concubine. The…

The Hound of Heaven (2 Timothy 2:8-13)

When God pursues, God finds; when God holds on, there is no letting go.

Remember Jesus Christ, who was raised from the dead and descended from David. This is my good news. This is the reason I’m suffering to the point that I’m in prison like a common criminal. But God’s word cannot be imprisoned. This is why I endure everything for the sake of those who are chosen by God so that they too may experience salvation in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. This saying is…

20th Communion Psalm 16

Sermon 2 Timothy 2:1 - 10 vs 2 Paul taught Timothy, amongst others. Timothy was to pass the teachings onto others.

We are to pass on our gifts to others. Preach the word.

They all had to live their lives strategically. They need to prepare.

The Christian walk is more like a marathon than a sprint.

vs 7

God is committed to making His Name known to all the world.

2 Timothy 2:13 (CEV). “If we are not faithful, he will still be faithful. Christ cannot deny who he is.”

Joshua 21:45 (ERV). “The Lord kept every promise that he made to the Israelites. There were no promises that he failed to keep. Every promise came true.”

Hebrews 13:8 (NIV). “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”

Matthew 6:8b (NLT). “...your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!”

Deuteronomy 31:8 (NIV). “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

Amen! 🙏🕊️🙌

What a wise and beautiful man. There will never be enough words to Ukrainian thank you.
