A powerful chapter on the deity of Jesus and the sad fact that so many will listen to another source for truth instead of Jesus. Paul's heartfelt instruction for Timothy comes out clearly in this final chapter we have of the Apostle Paul's writings.
In the later days we should expect many kinds of false teachings. There is a stark contrast between the Gospel of Jesus the Messiah and false teachers. This chapter brings to light one of them! Also in this chapter is a continued encouragement to focus the young Pastor in the ministry!
Be strong in grace! This was the message to Timothy from his teacher, Paul. Are you strong in grace? Do you know Jesus, His love, His mercy, His grace? What makes a good minister of the Good News is a strong understanding of our salvation and sanctification, which is achieved by the grace of God!
Well we are knee deep in some serious judgments to the earth and it's inhabitants! War is here! Plagues are happening! Everything we once thought to be a constant is no longer.
This is a time like no other on the planet. Humans no longer are in control, and the judgments that come are ones which cannot be thwarted by human engineering or industry. We are impotent against it!
Revelation 12 & 13 are amazing chapters that have been debating throughout the centuries! As judgments bombard the planet the people of the world will have a choice to either go along with the world economic and power structure controlled by the evil one or make a choice to suffer persecution due to their faith in Jesus as the Messiah of God.
