    Why Paul Wanted To Send Timothy

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Apr 25, 2025
     | 299 views

    The Apostle Paul says that most people—even all except Timothy—are only concerned with their own affairs, not with the interests of Christ. The work of Christ is, in fact, to truly love and care for fellow believers.

    Why Paul Wanted to Send Timothy Philippians 2:19–24 19 I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I too may be cheered by news of you. 20 For I have no one like him, who will be genuinely concerned for your welfare. 21 For they all seek their own interests, not those of Jesus ...read more

     | 314 views

    Paul's powerful prayer for the Colossians calls upon God to supply them with very important spiritual help that will enable them to live a life worthy of the Lord. These are things we can pray for ourselves and others to receive from the Lord.

    Delayed gratification is the norm for God's choice servants. Ponder how He works leads to a precious gift of understanding.

    “Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.” [1] Anticipate opposition and hostility if you are a Christian. Don’t seek conflict; but don’t be surprised when opposition arises. We Christians seek peace with all people and we will do all ...read more

     | 2,445 views

    God works under opposites in order to help mature us in our faith so that we might appreciate even more the miracle of His love. And that love is truly miraculous.

    The Theology of the Cross God sometimes does not work in the ways which we would expect our God to work. Sometimes, He does not always give us what we want. Sometimes, there are moments in our life where God seems so far away. We pray to Him and nothing happens. We look at God to intervene in our ...read more

    In Acts 5 are 3 attitudes about Jesus and the preaching of the cross. One is satanic & one SEEMS reasonable & sensible, but is really a product of human wisdom & leads to error. Only one is biblical & blessed by God. Part 1 deals with the first 2.
