36. 1Timothy 3:1-16ESV / 23 helpful votes Helpful Not Helpful
The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to
the office of overseer, he desires a noble task.
Therefore an overseer must be above reproach,
the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-
controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to
teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not
quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must
manage his own household well, with all dignity
keeping his children submissive, for if someone
does not know how to manage his own
household, how will he care for God's church? ...

chosen generation, a
royal priesthood, a holy
nation, a peculiar
people; that ye should
show forth the praises of
him who hath called you
out of darkness into his
marvellous light.”
50. • The task of evangelism is not to be limited to a
single, select nation.
• The Good News that God offer of salvation is to be
taken to all nations, to all people in this world.
• In these verses, we see a call to teach, and increase
the number of followers.
• The nation of Abraham was extended beyond simple
blood-lines and instead followed faith lines as the
body of Christians are now called as that nation of
priests.
51. 1. Which of these verses spoke to you in a personal
way?
2. God has called you a chosen generation, a royal
priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people.
This is your identity now. In what way are living
out this identity and purpose in your life?
3. Have you ever shared your faith? Recall a time
when you became “a witness” for Christ.
4. Why is it difficult to share the Gospel?
52. The Challenge:
To become a
World Christian
• A world Christian breaks the mold
of a self-centered world.
• A world Christian is one who has
chosen to start living with an
attitude of self-denial so that he
might respond to a world of greater
need beyond himself.
53. But how can we become world
Christians?
The most basic answer is to start
seeing the world as God sees it.
54. “The origin of missions ultimately is to be found in the
heart of God. No thought of God is true to His
revelation of Himself that does not rest on the fact
that He ‘so loved the world that he gave his only
begotten Son' that by believing in Him ‘the world
should be saved through him.‘”
Ruth Tucker,
From Jerusalem to Irian Jaya
We need to see the world with the love and
compassion of Christ, and our hearts are to be
broken with the things that break the heart of God.
