You must be in fellowship prior to your Bible study, so that the spiritual information you receive can become a source, of blessing to your soul and produce spiritual growth.




1 Timothy 4:6

 

DailyBibleStudy.Org

 

 

6 If thou put [hupotithemi] the brethren [adelphos] in remembrance [hupotithemi] of these things, [tauta] thou shalt be [esomai] a good [kalos] minister [diakonos] of Jesus [Iesous] Christ, [Christos] nourished up [entrepho] in the words [logos] of faith [pistis] and [kai] of good [kalos] doctrine, [didaskalia] whereunto [hos] thou hast attained. [parakoloutheo] KJV-Interlinear

 

 

6 In pointing out these things to the brethren, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished on the words of the faith and of the sound doctrine which you have been following. NASB

 

 

God evaluates teachers, instructors, leaders, anyone who possesses some form of authority over others, whether they be armies or nations, social organizations or church organizations, business organizations or children in a family.

 

Most of your life is utilized in fulfilling some role in teaching others, whether academically or by example, whether observed by those you know, or by those who you do not know.

 

The sum total of your life is evaluated by God and only God, and is based on the content of your soul.That is the foundation for all of your thoughts and actions in life.

 

If you are only impressed by credentials, by lavish architecture, by portfolio s, by social status, by education, and so forth, then your eyes are on the wrong things.

 

Here Gods evaluation of the successful teacher, is in his message. And his message must be accurate and present the things that we have just been studying.Namely the principles of Christianity verses the false doctrines out there which attempt to destroy truth.

 

Anyone who is in it for the pomp or attention, for the power or the authority, for the approbation or the things that drive the ego, has missed the whole point of life.

 

God provides you with everything that is important to Him, and necessary for you.God has placed everyone on this earth not to acclimate to and bond with this world, but to prepare for the next and greater life, of eternity.

 

Those who have a lot, and use it only for their earthly gratification, have failed. Those who have a little and complain or blame, have failed.

 

Only those who invest in their spiritual life (as defined by God), will succeed with a success that will last forever, and will far surpass any success recorded in human history.

 

Those who look only to this world for their satisfaction, will lose it all when they are called out of the world.Then their eyes will open and they will see their error.But why wait until after you have left the world before you figure it all out?

 

Paul is writing to Timothy, but he is also writing to you and me. If we pursue sound doctrine, and he used the word constantly, then you will acquire the faithful servant title, just as Paul has described here for Timothy.

 

You have an obligation to learn doctrine and to keep on learning it. If you study the Bible objectively for all of your life, you will never learn it all.

 

And if you remember in our earlier study, the truth that is available to us in this world is only the tip of the iceberg of knowledge that exists. We will have to wait until we are in heaven, and have accomplished spiritual maturity in this life prior to that, in order to have access to that greater blessing of knowledge.
