1 Timothy 4

Paul warns that some people will depart from the faith and begin teaching things that are contrary to Scripture. In order to be equipped and ready to fend off such falsehood, Timothy, as well as the church he shepherds, should train themselves in godliness. This comes from being nourished by the words of the faith and the good teaching of the church. Is training in physical fitness beneficial? Sure, but only in limited ways; spiritual fitness, on the other hand, is beneficial in every way and worthy of our efforts. Paul encourages Timothy to command and teach these things and set an example for others, even if they despise his youth. By persevering in the faith, Timothy will save both himself, and his hearers. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/[email protected]
