FAMILY THEME: EXAMPLE

SHOWING THE WAY

1 TIMOTHY 4:1-16

Leaders lead with more than mere words. Paul instructed

Timothy to set a godly example for others to follow.

1.  We Stand Firm in the Faith by Rejecting False Teaching

     (1 Timothy 4:1-5)

     False teaching leads many people away from Jesus.

 
2.  We Can Disciple and Train Ourselves to be Godly Examples

     (1 Timothy 4:6-10)

     Growth in godliness requires us to be disciplined. Paul even

     called it "labor" (verse 10).

 
3.  Believers of All Ages Can be Examples of Godly Living

     (1 Timothy 4:11-16)

     Timothy was younger than Paul, but by no means a teenager.

     Yet, Paul told him that age is no barrier to setting a godly example.
