Show Notes

People who are not convicted of their sin and who do not realize their own inability to meet God’s holy standard by their own efforts are not desperate for what God offers through the gospel. In 1 Timothy 1:7, Paul writes to his protege Timothy about some false teachers troubling the church at Ephesus. These false teachers wanted to be teachers of the Law, but they did not understand its proper use. In the four verses that follow (1 Timothy 1:8-11), Paul shows that the proper use of God’s Law is to bring conviction of sin so that people are driven to the gospel for salvation.

 

Today’s Top Ten List explores the Ten Guidelines for Abundant Living in 1 Timothy. Additional scriptures referenced include 1 Timothy 2:5; John 14:6; 1 Timothy 6:1, 9-10; Acts 16:13-15; 1 Timothy 5:1-2, 8; Leviticus 19:32; and Proverbs 16:31.
