Paul directed Timothy to avoid the lifestyle of the false teachers who saw ministry as a means to financial gain. Alistair Begg teaches us that leaders establish the pattern of spiritual maturity for the church by what they pursue and what they set their minds against. Godly living is not accomplished by human effort alone but is the result of God’s grace and divine enabling.
11But as for you, jO man of God, kflee these things. lPursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. 12mFight the good fight of the faith. nTake hold of the eternal life oto which you were called and about which you made pthe good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13qI charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, rwho in his testimony before4 Pontius Pilate made pthe good confession, 14to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until sthe appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which he will display tat the proper time—he who is uthe blessed and only Sovereign, vthe King of kings and Lord of lords, 16wwho alone has immortality, xwho dwells in yunapproachable light, zwhom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
