    “The Central Role of the Pastor !” 1 Timothy 3:1-7 What is a pastor suppose to look like? I have been told on occasion you don’t look like a preacher. I don’t know whether that is an insult or a compliment. Someone wrote a facetious account called “The Perfect ...read more

    Contributed by Ralf Bergmann on Sep 14, 2004
    based on 28 ratings
     | 6,823 views

    Today, we have the threat of cross-contamination between the ways of God and the ways of the world, just as it was threatening the church where Timothy was Paul’s chosen leader.

    Sermon Title: Help Wanted – Man of God Text: 1 Timothy 3 Date: August 24, 2003 Context of Scripture: It only stands to reason that since we dealt with the issue of women in the ministry last times we looked at Paul’s letter to Pastor Timothy, we should look at what is required of the men.

     | 3,161 views

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime

    It’s interesting that Paul uses four negative expressions to specify how the godly leader must live. Some things simply must not be present in his life.

    Paul sets before us a worthy goal-which most of us will work on for a lifetime.

    This final category touches the leader in his relationship to alcohol and money-two areas of perennial tempta-tion. Don’t overlook God’s Word on these crucial points!
