Redeemer reads 1 Timothy 6

As we finish reading 1 Timothy, Toby prays that we might be those whose perspective is an eternal one, not focused on earthly things.

Welcome! Here at Redeemer we believe that the Bible is the word of God, that it’s alive, and that its words can and should shape every aspect of our lives as Christians. But we also know it’s not easy to get into the habit of reading it every day! So we are following the CBR Bible Reading plan - which can be found below - to help us read the bible together.

We are currently reading the book of 1 Timothy, and every week day we will be releasing a video on our social media & YouTube accounts, with a member of our Redeemer family explaining what they feel God is saying to them through the passage! 

Today we hear from Toby as he shares with us from 1 Timothy 6.

If you have time, and a desire to know more, you’ll find ideas for further study of todays passage below.


Further Study

Paul calls God “blessed”: “. . . he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords” (1 Timothy 6:15). Why is God blessed, and what does that mean? The answers to these questions are the source of great Christian comfort and happiness.

Redeemer reads 1 Timothy 5

This morning as we read 1 Timothy 5, Nathanael helps us to see that our relationships with each other within the church are just as crucial as those we have with our earthly families. He also asks how we might reach out to someone within our church family this week?

In 1 Timothy 5, Paul talks about the process of appointing and disciplining those in eldership. Which begs the question, is there a different process of church discipline for those who are elders, than for the rest of the church?

Erik Raymond’s blog answers that question well, and is linked below.

In today's video, as we finish reading Colossians together, Toby simply prays for us, following Paul's instructions in this final chapter of the book.

The apostle Paul seems like someone who took the initiative. If we could imagine Paul we would think of a guy who would just parachute into a town and talk to everyone about Jesus before lunch…

But where did Paul’s boldness come from? Find out in this blog by Erik Raymond, based on Colossians 4.
