The Gospel: Grounds for Godly Living Part 1 (1 Timothy 3:14-16)
April 7, 2019 Preacher: Eric Douma Series: First and Second Timothy
Scripture: 1 Timothy 3:14-16
In this message taken from 1 Timothy 3:14-16 we examine how godly living is made possible through the person and work of Christ. This passage ties what Paul refers to as “the mystery of godliness” to a majestic Christ Hymn where Jesus’ saving work in the world is summarized. We focus, in this message, on the first couplet within the Christ Hymn which contrasts Christ’s suffering in the flesh with His vindication in the Spirit. Come and hear how amazing Christ’s work is and how trusting in Him is the only way anyone can live a truly godly life.
