Fusion: week of 1/26

FAMILY THEME: THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH

1 Timothy 6:3-21

Paul instructs Timothy on how to live out his faith in Jesus by

showing the difference Jesus makes in someone's life.

1.  God's People Focus on Godliness with Contentment

     While False Teachers Focus on Selfish Gain

     (1 Timothy 6:3-10)

     Christians ought to be satisfied if they have the

     essentials of life, such as food and clothing.

 
2.  God's People Pursue What is Good and Right,

     Having Nothing to do with Greed

     (1 Timothy 6:11-16)

     God's people are to pursue the things and ways

     of God.

     

3.  God's People are Generous, Trusting in God 

     Rather Than Riches

     (1 Timothy 6:17-21)

     Christians who are rich by the world's standards

     must be careful to maintain an attitude of humility

     in the Christian fellowship.
