NASB | 1 Timothy 5:24 ¶ The sins of some men are quite evident, going before them to judgment; for others, their sins follow after. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Timothy 5:24 ¶ The sins of some people are conspicuous, leading the way for them into judgment [so that they are clearly not qualified for ministry]; but the sins of others appear later [for they are hidden and follow behind them]. |
Subject: Can judgement happen before sin? |
Bible Note: Thanks Terrib, So what you are saying is that it is Timothy's judgement or decision that is being spoken of, and not God's judgement. In essence: Some men's sins are obvious - before you(Timothy) make your decision about ordaining them - and other men's sins won't show up until after you(Timothy) have already made your decision. In other words, Paul is telling Timothy that it's quite possible that he may ordain someone who seems to be living in victory over sin, but eventually this person may fall into sin after being ordained... How true... Thanks again. |
