1 Timothy 6.1
A. What is Paul teaching Timothy about “doctrine” in that will help him and the congregation know how to conduct themselves in the Church?
1. Doctrine belongs to God!
A. What this means is—teachings/instructions on how we ought to live our lives belongs to God alone because Scripture is from God!
2 Pt
1.
The word of God was confirmed by a miracle!
1 Pt 1:
2 Pt
A. This was the mount of transfiguration!
Matt 17:3-
Matt.
17:1-
1
Matt 17:
1.
According to Peter, what was confirmed on the Mount of Transfiguration and what we are to hear or listen to when the Father declared “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Hear Him!” was all Scripture!
A. Why?
1.
Because no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation!
2. Prophecy never came by the will of man.
3. Prophecy came when men were inspired by the Holy Spirit (God).
B. It is Pure, unadulterated Scripture that should guide and teach us how to live.
2 Peter 1:
1.
This means it is not changed by man!
2. Man should not try to interpret but understand.
2 Pt 3.14-16
3. Man should desire to grow and gain knowledge or faith in Jesus from the Scriptures.
B. It is not the Christian’s function to interpret the Scriptures but to desire to understand what God wants us to know.
1.
Our goal should be to rightly divide the word of truth.
A. Jesus was asked a question—why do you speak to them in parables?
1.
His answer to them was—seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
A. They physically both saw, heard and had an interpretation.
Matt 13.
1. Jesus showed them who He was over and over again.
A. On one occasion He cast out a demon and they called Him Beelzebub.
Matt 12.
1.
They interpreted what He did incorrectly because they did not desire to understand!
2. Unlike those who did not want to understand, Christ’s disciples did, so they asked for His interpretation, instead of putting their own spin on the parable.
Lk 8
3. Jesus answered them.
Lk 8.11-
Lk 8.12-
2. This is what we should do as well, when we have questions and do not understand!
A. Ask the question!
B. Seek the answer.
Matt.
7.7-
1. Search the Scriptures.
C. Listen to the answer.
Remember
1. Remember to use you eyes and ears to hear, see, and understand, so that it will be given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.
Matt 13.11-
D. Ask God for wisdom.
Conclusion:
1.
When we don’t live the way God desires, God’s name and His doctrine are blasphemed!
A. What did Paul desire for us to learn?
1.
It is God’s doctrine not ours!
2. When we understand that doctrine does not belong to us but to God, then we will desire to hear, listen, and understand!
3. Until we hear, listen, understand, and apply it, God and His doctrine is blasphemed.
