Epistle of 2 Timothy


Epistle of 2 Timothy


We are no matter what identity, what career to pursue, to be worthy of. We would also like to be a good Christian. How to be a good Christian?


The following is divided into three aspects to share with you:


Jesus taught us a new command, that we love each other. "I give you a new commandment, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. If you have love for one another, men will know that you are my disciples." (13:34-35) Paul said: "if I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I,have become sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal." (1 Corinthians 13:1) "Now faith, hope, love; the three, and the greatest of these is love." (1 Corinthians 13:13) in a love letter, the Apostle said, "if anyone says, 'I love', and hates his brother, he is a liar; didn't love for his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he hath not seen."(JN 4:20) "the end of all things, so beware, watch and pray. The most important thing is to love one another,because love covers a multitude of sins." (1 Peter 4:7-8) Jesus taught us to love God with all our minds, but alsoto love one another. Higher level is reached without my ecstasy. A man love his love for others will be reduced.And love can reach the effect of evangelism.


There is no "how can I love?"


1, love others and love myself. Jesus uses the parable of the Good Samaritan. (10:25-37)


2 sacrificial love. The love of Jesus Christ died on the cross.


3 love enemies. Jesus prayed on the cross: "father ah! Forgive them; for they do, they don't know." (23:34) the Lord Jesus has taught us: "but I tell you: love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you." (Matthew 5:44)


Clear conscience


Everyone has a conscience, only Christians to more sensitive than others. For example: when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit began to hide from God; he nailed to the innocent Jesus, conscience; Peter denied Jesus three times, conscience and uneasy; vendor Judah; Herod to kill John the Baptist was conscience and so on. "Beloved,if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God" (JN 3:21) Christians have the Holy Spirit,Jesus tells us that we don't let the Holy Spirit, so that there is a clear conscience.


My mind on the things of God, to God for himself. "This house is a waste, you have to live the ceiling of thehouse?" (The 1:4) "Jesus said: 'Why me? Know ye not that I must be in my father's house?'" (Luke 2:49) allegiance to God. "Mose as a servant, verily was faithful in all his house, as a testimony of those things." (3:5) "my servant Mose is not so, who is faithful in all my house." (The 12:7)


Mose's loyalty is reflected in three aspects:


1 obey God, obey orders.


2 duty, be strict with oneself.


3, love your neighbor as you would give up life. Mose said to Jesus: "if you would forgive their sin, otherwise, then blot me out of the book you have written." (32:32)


Mose is our role model, Paul also set a good example for us. Paul's loyalty is reflected in three aspects:


All 1 will be as dung, to Jesus Christ as the treasure. "Nay, I will have everything a loss, because of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord to treasure. I have lost all things considered, like, for christ." (Philippians 3:8)


Worked 2 hard, builds up the church. Acts 13 things recorded Paul preaching, church.


3 fight the good fight, run the race. "I'm being poured out, my end is near. The good I ha. The good I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race to do, I have kept the faith. From then on, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the LORD judge in righteousness to will give to me on that day, and not only to me, but alsogive to all those who love his appearing." (2 Timothy 4:6-8)


Our each people all want to use God given gifts to serve. In Matthew 25: 14-30, Lord Jesus said according to theanalogy, remind us that we should make good use of the Lord gave gifts, to now. May God bless his own words!
