Such things promote controversial speculations rather than advancing God\u2019s work\u2014which is by faith. 5 The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6 Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. 7 They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>\u2003<\/strong><br \/>\nI. Introduction<br \/>\n\u2022 [SLIDE 5] Time, location<br \/>\no V1 Letter written by Paul<br \/>\no Circa 65 AD, Just after Ephesians, Colossians, Philippians, Philemon; Luke\u2019s Gospel and Acts<br \/>\no V2 Written to Timothy, but since the final greeting 6:21 is plural, probably to the church as a whole. So it is not private, but an official letter.<br \/>\n\u2022 The summary of the content<br \/>\n\u2022 3:14-15 How people should conduct themselves in the church<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Teaching, prayer, caring for members in need, leadership, how to relate to money, etc.<br \/>\n\u2022 We can learn how to have a healthy church!!<br \/>\n\u2022 Breakdown into 6 areas<br \/>\n\uf0a7 1:3-20 Doctrine<br \/>\n\uf0a7 2:1-15 Public worship<br \/>\n\uf0a7 3:1-16 Leadership<br \/>\n\uf0a7 4:1-10 Moral instruction, and 4:11-5:2 instructions to leaders<br \/>\n\uf0a7 5:3-6:2 Social responsibilities<br \/>\n\uf0a7 6:3-21 Attitudes to wealth<br \/>\n\u2022 [SLIDE 6] The cast:<br \/>\n\u2022 Paul:<br \/>\n\uf0a7 A well-educated, rich and powerful Jewish Rabbi<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Met Christ, and became an apostle &#8211; a messenger of the gospel, esp to gentiles<br \/>\n\uf0a7 V1 tells us this: an apostle by the command of God<br \/>\n\u2022 Note that God is called Saviour, where we would expect Christ Jesus<br \/>\n\u2022 This is a trinitarian understanding, and also that the Father is the ultimate source<br \/>\n\u2022 Christ is our hope<br \/>\n\u2022 His second coming, and our resurrection is our hope.<br \/>\n\u2022 Timothy<br \/>\n\uf0a7 One of Paul\u2019s converts<br \/>\n\uf0a7 A close fellow-worker with Paul in his missionary work<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Mentioned several times in Acts, Romans, I&amp;II Corinthians, Philippians, Colossians, 1&amp;2 Thess, Philemon, Hebrews, and of course 1&amp;2 Timothy<br \/>\n\uf0a7 =&gt; in Acts, and in almost all of Paul\u2019s letters<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Very close to Paul, like a son.<br \/>\n\u2022 The church: Ephesus<br \/>\n\uf0a7 &lt;Map&gt;<br \/>\n\uf0a7 3rd largest city in Asia Minor, est. pop about 170,000 people, important port city<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Hosted the Temple of Artemis, one of 7 Wonders of the Ancient World<br \/>\n\uf0a7 For us =&gt; Central hub for the regions churches and missionary work. Paul had spent 3 years there.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 First mentioned in the list of 7 churches of Asia in Rev 1-2.<br \/>\n\u2022 [SLIDE 7] Occasion: We haven\u2019t talked about why Paul wrote the letter yet.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 V3 Leaders gone bad<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Timothy sent by Paul to get church back on track<br \/>\n\uf0a7 So what was Timothy like to be given such a task?<br \/>\n\u2022 Probably in his 30s &lt;= young according to the culture<br \/>\n\u2022 Sickly<br \/>\n\u2022 Shy and timid<br \/>\n\uf0a7 What did Timothy have going for him?

[SLIDE7 continued] Leaders gone bad (target 10min)<br \/>\n\u2022 V4 What were these teachers teaching?<br \/>\n\u2022 False doctrines<br \/>\n\u2022 Myths<br \/>\n\u2022 Useless details<br \/>\n\u2022 The result<br \/>\n\u2022 Speculation and controversy, endless without possibility of resolution<br \/>\n\u2022 God\u2019s work not done<br \/>\n\u2022 What is wrong here?<br \/>\n\u2022 Attention given to the wrong things<br \/>\n\u2022 Attention not given to the right things<br \/>\n\u2022 [Slide 8] So what should we teach? A little aside on doctrine<br \/>\n\u2022 Levels<br \/>\n\u2022 Core \u2013 basic beliefs, that we must agree on<br \/>\n\u2022 Convictions \u2013are important for health, so we can argue and separate over<br \/>\n\u2022 Opinions \u2013 we must not separate over opinions<br \/>\n\u2022 Questions \u2013 things about which there is no clarity<br \/>\n\u2022 Core<br \/>\n\u2022 Things we must know and believe to be a Christian<br \/>\n\u2022 Things that if we know, we must not reject<br \/>\n\u2022 Things we may not agree to, but we should believe<br \/>\n\u2022 [SLIDE 9] Where should we pay our attention? The core =&gt; gospel!<br \/>\n\u2022 Remember Romans:<br \/>\n\u2022 The gospel: what God has done and promises to do<br \/>\n\u2022 Therefore, give yourself to God<br \/>\n\u2022 God has given you work to do<br \/>\n\u2022 V5 Do it with love<br \/>\n\u2022 Here we have:<br \/>\n\u2022 A sincere faith: trusting the gospel in a way that changes our thinking and behavior<br \/>\n\u2022 A pure heart: we give ourselves to God, and nurture a heart that wants only what God wants, and doesn\u2019t have mixed motives<br \/>\n\u2022 A good conscience: acting in obedience<br \/>\n\u2022 V5 Growing in love is the goal.<br \/>\n\u2022 [Slide 10] What went wrong with the bad teachers?<br \/>\n\u2022 V6 And they departed from the above: a sincere faith, a good conscience, a pure heart, and love.<br \/>\n\u2022 V7 What do they think of themselves<br \/>\n\u2022 They want to be teachers of the law<br \/>\n\u2022 They are confident<br \/>\n\u2022 But they are talking about things they don\u2019t understand.<br \/>\n\u2022 Their talk is meaningless<br \/>\n\u2022 How did this happen?<br \/>\n\u2022 1:7 Maybe this is part of it: They wanted to be recognized as teachers, without understanding what they are teaching.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Understanding is not simply an intellectual exercise.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 A sincere faith goes beyond just textbook knowledge<br \/>\n\u2022 Acts 20:30 They wanted a following more than the truth<br \/>\n\uf0a7 A desire for status of their own, their own brand<br \/>\n\uf0a7 So you invent your own teaching, to differentiate yourself.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Some false, some made up, some irrelevant<br \/>\n\uf0a7 In 1 Cor 1:10-13, we read that the church had split into groups following their favorite teacher.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 But Paul was not interested in building his own brand, but in promoting Christ.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 And he praises Timothy for being the same way.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 In some cases, a desire for money.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 And remember, Jesus said you cannot love both God and money (Luke 16:13). Love of one drives out love of the other.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 There are many who fall into this condition<br \/>\n\u2022 V6 The result is they turned away<br \/>\n\u2022 from true and useful teaching<br \/>\n\u2022 and its goal &#8211; love.<br \/>\n\u2022 And their listeners, like them, just wasted their time with meaningless talk, and didn\u2019t grow spiritually. In fact, they ruin their faith.<\/p>\n<p>III. The hope of the resurrection and us<br \/>\n\u2022 [SLIDE 11] So what were these false doctrines?<br \/>\n\u2022 Well we know this: 2 Tim 2:18 Heresy that the resurrection had already happened.<br \/>\n\u2022 Why is it a problem if there is no bodily resurrection ahead of us?<br \/>\n\u2022 Our resurrection marks the completion of our salvation.<br \/>\n\u2022 We are saved when we believe in Jesus, we are being saved &#8211; restored, and we will be saved when Jesus comes to give us new bodies and take us to himself.<br \/>\n\u2022 But if the resurrection has already happened, there is nothing ahead to hope for; it doesn\u2019t get any better than this.<br \/>\n\u2022 As we read in 1 John 3:2-3, it is the hope of what lies ahead that gives us motivation to be holy like Jesus.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 We love a singer\u2019s song, and we try to sound like them.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 Even though we know we will never be at that level, our attraction shapes our values and the way we live our lives.<br \/>\n\uf0a7 But we will be like Jesus when we see him again.<br \/>\n\u2022 If we lose our hope of the resurrection that lies ahead, we lose our motivation to work towards being like Jesus.<br \/>\n\u2022 And inevitably, we will lose our faith and fall into immorality.<br \/>\nBecause we have no hope.<\/p>\n<p>IV. [SLIDE 12] What about us?<br \/>\n\u2022 We too can fall away, both as individuals and as a body<br \/>\n\u2022 When our faith is not sincere, when we do not grasp what God has done for us<br \/>\n\u2022 Our hearts are unsatisfied,<br \/>\n\u2022 We are tempted to satisfy our needs in other ways =&gt; our heart is no longer pure<br \/>\n\u2022 We distract ourselves with things that are meaningless or even wrong.<br \/>\nWe neglect what we should be doing, because we are separated from God\u2019s life and leadership<br \/>\n\u2022 We offend our consciences because we are in conflict inside<br \/>\n\u2022 And consequently, we lose our freedom to love, and instead fight and argue<br \/>\n\u2022 How can we make sure not to wander away, as individuals and as a church?<br \/>\n\u2022 Keep focused and intentional on the main thing<br \/>\n\u2022 Always remember the gospel<br \/>\n\u2022 Let it change our hearts, so that we want the right things. Struggle with God for it.<br \/>\n\u2022 Keep it real.<br \/>\n\u2022 Keep a clear conscience: do what we know we should do, stop what we shouldn\u2019t<br \/>\n\u2022 Determine to love.<br \/>\n\u2022 Faith, a pure heart, and a good conscience will free us to do so.<br \/>\n\u2022 But how?<br \/>\n\u2022 It is the love of God that is at work within us.<br \/>\n\u2022 It is the love of God that sustains us<br \/>\n\u2022 It is the hope of God that motivates us<br \/>\n\u2022 So let us cling to the love of God shown in the gospel,<br \/>\n\u2022 Ask God to teach it to us, so we can believe it sincerely<br \/>\n\u2022 Trust God and give ourselves to him, and let him deal with our mixed motives and give us a pure heart<br \/>\n\u2022 Keep a good conscience<br \/>\n\u2022 Let God teach us how to love<br \/>\n\u2022 And let us encourage one another!<br \/>\nLet\u2019s pray<\/p>\n<p>V. Questions<br \/>\n1. As a church<br \/>\no What are ways that churches and their leaders go off track?<br \/>\no Why do you think this happens?<br \/>\no What are the consequences?<br \/>\no What can we do as a church do to keep the right focus?<br \/>\n2. As individual believers<br \/>\no What are ways that individual believers go off track?<br \/>\no Why do you think this happens?<br \/>\no What ways can we make sure that we are personally focusing on the main thing?<br \/>\no How can we help each other stay on track?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Reading on slide 2-4] 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God
