I Timothy 3:16 – Manifested in the Flesh

(This podcast was previously published on February 2, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    No one knows the exact day or hour that Jesus will return.  But Peter tells us we must be ready continually for Jesus' return.   2 Peter 3:10-14   But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.   11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,   12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?   13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.   14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of Him in peace, without spot, and blameless.   Throughout each day of our lives on this present earth we must live in peace, without spot and blameless.   How we can do that?   (Discussed on this Podcast.)   *****   The first thing we should do is meditate on 2 Peter 3:14 until it becomes real in our daily lives that it causes us to conform our actions on this earth to living this scripture and allowing it to rule over that which we do throughout each day.   14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.   ***   We must come to understand that this world and the things of this world are "temporary".  And we must learn that our kingdom is not of this world.   Everything that we can see with our natural eye will be destroyed by God at the end of this world.   The only way we can live continually, daily in peace is by doing the following scripture:   Philippians 4:6-7   Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus (The Word).   This means when trouble comes, call on God for help.   When there is any concern at all, turn to God in prayer and let your request be made unto God.   If we have any dread about tomorrow, stop and pray to God.   ***   Jesus says:   Luke 21   33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but MY words shall not pass away.   34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting (over indulgence), and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.   35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.   36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.   Watch:   Be careful about how you are living each day.  If you become angry with someone, turn to God immediately.  Ask God to help you.  Let God settle you quickly.  Let not the sun go down on your wrath.   Do not follow thoughts of devils.  For he comes to steal, to kill, to destroy.  Be sure the ideas you follow are from God.   James 3:17   But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.   ***   Recently I stumbled into someone's sins.  It wasn't until I finished talking by phone with this person that I realized what I had done.  I also opened the door myself for trouble by sending him a "friendly" email.  He called me and began discussing his adult aged children with me.   After I finished the phone call, I felt a little strange.  All through the phone call I kept holding back from wishing the son and daughter well.  It was like the Spirit of God was stopping me.  Then after the phone call I realized this man's son has been committing fornication for at least 3 years with a girlfriend.  These people identify themselves as Catholic.  I did not warn them about fornication.  The Holy Spirit did not bring the subject of fornication into my mind so I think the door on that subject must be closed by God.   (About 20 years ago, I spoke to this man concerning the sin of fornication which he was committing with his girlfriend when his two children were approximately 9 and 13 years old.  His life is a tragedy.  His wife was a lesbian and it is my understanding that she left with her "lover" and he raised his two children.)   I did repent and ask God to forgive me two days later when I realized what had happened.  I was very sorry for opening the door by sending that friendly email.   James 4:4  Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.   *** We can lose reward in heaven by being friendly or by wishing evil doers well.   II John   8  Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.   9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.   10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:   11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.   ***   One good thing that did come forth as I spoke to this man:   He inquired about Pam Padgett and he said how glad he was I was living with Pam.   I replied:  "It's wonderful because Pam is a very godly person and she doesn't trouble me.  When there is a problem Pam prays, and when she hears from God, she does what God says and that problem is taken care of through what God tells her to do.  Then after God has shown her what to do, she might tell me so I can also delight in what God has said to her."   It is possible that this information pricked this man's heart for he had just been telling me his problems,   We must be diligent to "watch ourselves", what we are doing.  The people are often doing things that are unthinkable to godly people, even when they are attending a church.   ***   A few months ago, God gave me a dream.  Some very dirty cats kept getting in my house.  I would get them out of my house only to find they were back in my house.  God showed me I was opening the door to them by being friendly.   We "invite" people into our lives by our friendly emails or phone calls.  Then we wish evil doers well in their fornication with their "girl friends" and in their denial of God as they cast aside scripture.  (Often they attend some church while doing these sins.)   Then we wish them well as we make "friendly" inquiries about their godless children who are doing godless things.  And as we make inquiries, we open doors for the stories of their filthy way of life and the filthy way of life of their children.  Then we are troubled.  Often we have brought their trouble on ourselves.   We must stop doing this if we desire to serve God and hope for a full reward from God.   We can repent and be forgiven and be careful in future concerning opening doors for evil doers in churches to tell us their sins and to tell us of the sins of their own children, making us a part of the sin.   I Timothy 5:22  Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.   Thus Jesus says "Watch yourselves, what you do."  (Luke 21:36)   And if we do choose to hear of their evil, usually the Holy Spirit will have us correct them, speaking to them the way of life.   In this case, the Holy Spirit did not have me bring correction to this man but after the phone call, the Holy Spirit showed me that I had opened the door for evil to come into my own life and I repented and asked for God to forgive me.   Hopefully I will be more alert as to what I am doing as I go forward.  (I usually am alert and avoid the evil that can come from people through my questions about their lives.  But this time I slipped.)   Proverbs 10:19   In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.   ***   James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.   Let God be our Lord by turning to HIM rather than to other people.   ***   James 3   14  But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.   15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.   16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.   17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.   18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.   ***   Matthew 11  Jesus says:   29 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.   29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.   30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.   Pray:   Be connected throughout the day with God through prayer.   Prayer is the only way we connect with God, for as we take each concern to God in prayer and hear from God and do what God says, making ourselves worthy to escape that which is coming upon this present world.   Jesus says the following to the church:   Revelation 3:5   He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.   We "overcome" as we seek the will of God in the midst of the problem and hear from God and follow what God says to do.  By this, we connect ourselves to God.  

(This podcast was previously published on February 4, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Jesus says, concerning the end times:   Luke 21:34  And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting (over indulgence), and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.   On January 6, 2021, we watched a crowd of people storm the USA Capitol building in an attempt to overthrow the 2020 USA presidential elections.   I'm sure none of us in USA have ever experienced anything like this before in our lifetimes.   After the event, 10 USA republican congress members voted to impeach President Trump for inciting the riot which we all watched on television.   This really caught my attention for everyone heard the words spoken by President Trump before the riot and we heard him send the crowd to the capitol and Mr. Trump even told the crowd to go, and "he would be there with them,"  but he wasn't.   A few days later, CNN reported that the republicans were trying to cause those 10 who voted against Trump to suffer loss for the way they voted.   I was sad and grieved over their suffering.   I took on a care of this world.   Jesus warned us not to be "overcharged" with cares of this life.  (Luke 21:34)   When I read this scripture, I repented for allowing myself to become so involved in this world, and I prayed, asking God to please help those 10 men and women who were being hurt by their own political party for doing that which they believed to be right and reasonable.   I even began to feel democracy itself was in danger.   But then I realized this entire heaven and earth will be destroyed, and governments of men along with the heavens and earth.  And I began to get a grip on myself and on Biblical reality.   II Peter 3   10  But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.   11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,   12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?   13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.   14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.   ***   I've always considered myself to be non-political, I am not registered in either political party in USA, and I do not vote for governments of men.   But for one very brief time, I knew what it was to care.  And it could have destroyed me except I turned to God for HIM to restore me.   This is what the truly godly people were like in the Bible:   Hebrews 11   8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.   9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:   10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.   13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.   14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.   15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.   (mindful:  having a mind filled with that)   16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for HE hath prepared for them a city.   The apostle Peter in the Bible tells us to be diligent to be found by Jesus when HE returns, living in peace, without spot and without blame.  (II Peter 3:14)   Keeping ourselves in a state of peace even in the midst of that which is being done around us is the way we are to live and we can do that only through prayer.   Philippians 4:6-7  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.   ***   I Timothy 2:1-2   I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;  For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

I Timothy 2: 8

Today, Pastor Nate looks at I Timothy 6, and Matthew 6 to truly learn more about our heart and our money. God knew something about ourself when he wrote about money and giving over 2200x in scripture. Apparently he knew this would be a touchy issue for all of us!  Grab your pen (or your electronic device notes app), open your heart, and be willing to hear some truths about our money and giving that we all need to hear. 

Today we wrap us Paul's letter to the Philippians.  One thing that stands out in Paul's mind is that God offers what we need most in life.  In fact, with Christmas that is exactly what God gives to us.  God truly come to us in order that our needs would be met!  It was because of this that Paul was able to display a thankful spirit in the most difficult times of his life!  When you know that God's promise is there to meet your greatest needs, you also will discover a most thankful spirit in you!  Read  Philippians 4:14-20; I Timothy 6:18-19; Matthew 6:25-33; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8; I John 5:14-15

= A New Testament Pastor is a Shepherd (points to his task)= A New Testament Pastor is an Overseer (points to his authority)= A New Testament Pastor is an Elder (points to his maturity) = Hebrews 13:7; 17 - congregation to pastor and pastor to congregation. I. Intensity & Intentionality Required - 1. Flee - Run from the wrong things 2. Pursue - Run to the right things 3. Fight the good fight (I Tim 6:11-12) 4. PO/PO - Ephesians 4 5. Flee - James 4:7 • We run away from sin (sanctification), but Satan runs away from you (submission) II. The Shepherds as Bond-Servants: 1. “Must not be” - “quarrelsome.” • I Timothy 2:8; 3:3; 6:4 • Titus 3:2; Titus 3:9 • II Timothy 2:14; 2:23; 2:24 2. “Must be” - Serving & Discerning • Kind to everyone - (leads to repentance - Romans 2:4) • Able to teach - unique word here and I Timothy 3:2. Ezra 7:10, The hand of the Lord is upon him because He SET HIS HEART to (3): Rigorous study; Regular obedience; Robust teaching. • Not resentful - (patient when wronged). Many commentators noted that this is one of the most difficult challenges of a pastor. What is the key to being faithful to this verse? Making sure ministry is about His Name; His Word; His Will. It's not about us. • Correcting opponents w/ gentleness - (correcting carefully) - Look to Joseph of Genesis and Jesus of Nazareth! Genesis 50:20; I Peter 2:21-23 3. Must Trust God when correcting: We must trust God to change people - We follow His commands • God will grant them repentance • God will lead them to the knowledge of the truth • They will come to their senses - • They will escape from the trap of the devil - “who has taken them captive to do his will.”

The Generous Life Pt. 2 | November 16, 2025Pastor Wes Morris Proverbs 11:24 (MSG) The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.√  I NEED TO PROTECT MYSELF.Proverbs 29:25 (NIV) Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.√  HAVING MORE WILL MAKE ME SECURE.Mark 10:21–22 (NLT) Jesus looked at him and loved him. “There is still one thing you haven't done,” he said. “Go and sell all your possessions…then come, follow me.” At this the man's face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.”√  WHAT I HAVE DETERMINES WHO I AM.II Corinthians 8:1-2 (NLT) Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in his kindness has done through the churches in Macedonia. They are being tested by many troubles, and they are very poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity.A LIFE THAT OVERFLOWSI.  OPEN YOUR HEART TO HEALING.Luke 10:31-33 (NIV) A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him.II.  PLACE YOUR SECURITY IN JESUS.Philippians 4:11-13 (NIV) I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV) Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.III. LIVE WITH ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE.I Timothy 6:17-19 (NIV) Command them not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.NEXT STEPSWhere is God asking you to show courage this week so your life can overflow - in healing, in trust, or in living with an eternal perspective?

When you look at life in general what are the things that add up to giving you a life that is filled with contentment?  In other words, what are the things you need to be content in your life?  Have you reached contentment in your life?  This Sunday we are going to talk about that.   Before you come it would be helpful to read Philippians 4:10-13, I Timothy 6:6-8, Matthew 6:31-33, and Luke 12:13-21

Episode Summary: In Psalm 119:97, David cries out, “Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day.” But Paul wrote to the Romans, “You are not under law but under grace,” (6:14) and to the Galatians, “If you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law” (5:18). So, for Christians, which is it? Are we called to live free from the Law or devoted to the Law? As we continue our study of I Timothy we realize that the question of the place of the law for Christians was an issue that Timothy and other church leaders at Ephesus were wrestling with. This episode examines what Paul said to Timothy as well as what the rest of Scripture says about whether a believer should try to be righteous, i.e. keep the law.For Further Prayerful Thought:How would try to explain to a new believer that when Paul said that Christians don't live “under the law” he was referring to how we are SAVED, not how we are TO LIVE.What stood out to you about the three categories of biblical law?Look back at the 8 texts and reasons that pursuing righteousness is NOT legalism. Which ones seemed most persuasive to you.In David's Psalm 119 cry, “O how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day” why might he associate loving God's law with meditating on it?For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)

I Timothy 2:1-7

CHRIST: II Timothy 2:10 (Philippians 2:1-11) Last? Paul learned to be others-centered! CONTEXT: Paul writes first to Timothy. These three verses are personal; they are powerful; they are problematic.I. The Impact of the Gospel is Past, Present, & Future: Condition & Promise  1. IF WE DIED (past tense) - conversion language; Jesus died for us; We died with Him; In Adam or In Christ; Luke 9:23; Romans 6:1-8, 11; Galatians 2:20 (“Were you there”); Colossians 3:1-3  2. WE WILL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM (future tense) - see 4:8  3. If we can look back with confidence, then we can look forward with assurance -  4. IF WE ENDURE (Bear up under much pressure; under a load); Jesus endured to the end; Paul endured to the end (lion's mouth); All of God's people will endure; Matthew 24:14; Possess the endurance of a soldier; Possess the endurance of an athlete; Possess the endurance of a farmer!  • WE WILL ALSO REIGN WITH HIM (future tense) - right now counts forever! Great motivation to persevere under the pressure of persecution; I Cor 6:2-3; Rev 3:21; 20:4, 6 (The Millennium)  5. IF WE DENY/DISOWN HIM (negative promise but a promise nonetheless); Have you ever had momentary failures; Failing to speak; Failing to be silent; Timidity sets in; Shame enters in; Don't take the Lord's Name in vain (much more than coarse words); means to live in a way that misrepresents the One we claim to believe in - the One we claim to love; We can't call ourselves Christ-followers and live any way we want; Is this falling from grace? AWOL - Loss of the pride of fighting? Loss of the prize? Loss of the crops? Denied joy, power, prayer (Ps 68:18); forfeiting much blessing  •HE WILL DENY US - “I never knew you”? Matthew 7:21-23;  6. IF WE ARE FAITHLESS (not false faith, but a faulty faith) - I Timothy 1 - “I am sure if your sincere faith”; 2:4 - don't get “entangled”;  • HE REMAINS FAITHFUL - Hebrews He is not ashamed of us; Jesus predicted Peter's denials AND He predicted Peter's restoration!  • FOR HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF -
