FAMILY THEME: GODLINESS

DOING THINGS GOD'S WAY

1 TIMOTHY 2:1-15

It is expected that children will bear a physical resemblance to

their parents. Believers should bear a spiritual resemblance to

their Father. We call it godliness.

1.  Praying for All People in All Ways Leads to Godly Living

     (1 Timothy 2:1-4)

     Paul exhorted believers to employ various types of prayer

     while interceding for all people.

 
2.  Proclaiming the Reconciling Work of Christ Produces

     Godly People

     (1 Timothy 2:5-7)

     Jesus is the only Mediator between God and man.

 
3.  Godliness Includes Maintaining Order in the Church

     (1 Timothy 2:8-15)

     Paul called for men to pray and lead in the church and for

     godliness among the women of the church in terms of

     character, outward appearance, and submission.
