1 | What is the context of 1 Timothy 6:3? | 1 Timothy | InGodITrust | 188196 | ||
M.Royal, Question: M.Royal, I have been looking at all the responses you've gotton since your initial question. I think they and perhaps you have strayed from the context of 1 Timothy 6:3....... Secondly, do you have a specific question regarding the context of 1 Tim 6:3? The context of 1 Tim 6:3 is basically the first two verses. This has to do with Christian respect and obedience to our (today) employers since none of us today are slaves. Verse three would say to us today to obey and loyally respect our employer as if we are serving Christ. The warning in 1 Timothy chapter six is not to pay attention to false teachers who would tell us, or give us, teaching that goes against what Christ taught regarding or service to those in charge or over us. As far as other verses related to "the doctrine of Christ," these have to do with His deity or Lordship in salvation. With regards to all the teachings of the Apostles, as others have indicated (especially in our day and age) your "best foot forward" is all God would ask of you or any of us. Is all the various doctrines taught today confusing and many misleading? "What an understatment!" As others have indicated, the Holy Spirit and much prayer is all that is required. God is not asking us to fret over whether or not "all our doctrines are PERFECT." If you are His child, He will lead you and does not require all you know and do to be "flawless." Hope this helps, did not intend to get in the middle of all this, but when trying to understand Scripture it's "context, context, context." Let me know, InGodITrust |
