Life on Life

Our faith is all about relationships
Paul had a special relationship with Timothy
Son like
Shared lives
1 Thessalonians 2:8 HCSB
We cared so much for you that we were pleased to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us.
Who’s Your Paul
You were invested in
Deposits were made
What are you doing with it
2 Timothy 2:1–2 HCSB
You, therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, commit to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
Who’s Your Timothy
There is someone coming behind you
They are gifted and passionate
We invest and release
Everyone has a Timothy that need to be made ready
2 Timothy 4:2 HCSB
Proclaim the message; persist in it whether convenient or not; rebuke, correct, and encourage with great patience and teaching.
Called to Make Disciples
Not called to make clones or converts
Pass it on
Titus 2:6–8 HCSB
In the same way, encourage the young men to be self-controlled in everything. Make yourself an example of good works with integrity and dignity in your teaching. Your message is to be sound beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be ashamed, having nothing bad to say about us.
Called to Make Disciples
We grow when we give it away
Lesson of the talents
When we don’t pass it on it cheapens Grace
"Cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline, Communion without confession, absolution without personal confession. Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer
