Are you looking for peace? The kind of peace that is not affected by our daily circumstances?

The result is an everlasting peace that goes beyond our daily work and the difficulties of life. Found out how to accept this peace that God wants to give.

New Testament Survey no.25: Paul - First Letter to TimothyClive Ashby
As part of the New Testament Survey Course, Session 25 provides an overview of the Apostle Paul's letter to his close friend, Timothy, and the wider church in Ephesus. This is one of Paul's later pastoral letters. (Course taught at Harare Theological College - 2016).
Bob Deffinbaugh, “When Paul wrote 1Timothy, he had been freed from his first Roman imprisonment and was carrying on his ministry (in Macedonia? – see 1 Timothy 1:3); as Paul writes 2 Timothy, he is once again in prison, and this time he is not nearly as optimistic about the outcome (2 Timothy 1:16; 2:9). Some have even suggested that Timothy may not have arrived before Paul was executed. Paul’s last words to Timothy sound very much like a farewell address. He is passing the torch of leadership to
Timothy, and to those who will succeed him. In 1 Timothy, Paul instructs Timothy how he should conduct his ministry in Ephesus; in 2 Timothy, Paul instructs Timothy how he should conduct himself and his ministry in the last days, in Paul’s absence.”
M. F. Sadler, “It was written from Rome shortly before the mart3nrdom of the apostle. It was written chiefly to urge Timothy to come to him, all his other companions in the service of Christ (excepting Luke) being away. One, Demas, had deserted him ; others, as Tychicus, he had sent away. But, though apparently sent for the purpose of urging Timothy to come to him quickly, it contains the most precious exhortation to him, and through him to all ministers, " to make full proof of their ministry," and this it does in the words of a dying man, who is " ready to be
offered, and the time of whose departure is at hand." Whatever special onslaughts of the evil one were yet in store for him, we have his expression of faith that God would carry him triumphantly through all.”

As part of the New Testament Survey Course, Session 21 provides an overview of the letter of the Apostle Paul to the church in the city of Colossae. This is one of the prison letters of Paul, written from his imprisonment in Rome. (Course taught at Harare Theological College - 2016)

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

Overall : Paul’s Letters
5. Written from Paul in prison
Every letter talks about His imprisonment + chains
Ephesians – chapter 3: 1, 4:1, 6:20
“I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you” (Eph. 3:1)
Colossians – chapter 1:24, 4: 3,10,18
“I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains” (Col. 4:18)
Philemon – verses 1, 10, 13, 23
I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf
during my imprisonment for the gospel, (Philemon 1:13)
Philippians – chapter 1: 7,13,14,17
“it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my
imprisonment is for Christ”. (Phil. 1:13)
7. From : ROME
Because -
Writes about –
‘Caesar’s Household’ (Phil. 4:22)
‘Imperial Guard’ (Phil. 1:13)
Church leaders confirm written in Rome
Date : A.D 61 - 62
9. Situation
Acts 28: 17 – 30
Appealed : to be Tried by Caesar in Rome
Because : in Judah - Jewish leaders plotted to kill him
Could : Roman Citizen
Imprisoned : 2 years
House Arrest (not prison) : pay for his place + food
Chained : to Roman Guard 24 hours / day
Flexible : People visit + Share Gospel + Write letters
Awaited : Trial – Death Penalty OR Set Free
10. Content
Deal - more with general teaching / less with individual
questions (as 1 Corinthians + Thessalonians did)
To - Churches maturing in their faith
Who - needed to receive deeper teaching that would
enlighten + stabilise them
11. Message
Being Imprisoned was God’s Greater plan (not a waste of time)
Lord’s Plan = enabled to evangelise: Roman Governors + Caesar + Guards /
Soldiers + Government + Judges + Jewish Leaders
Paul took every advantage of being in chains to –
Share the Gospel (with Jewish leaders + visitors + every guard)
Disciple new believers (e.g. Onesimus – Philemon 1:10)
Teach the church in Rome
Write letters / teaching to Ephesus + Colossae + Philemon + Philippi
12. Personal Challenge
Do I trust God’s Greater plan ? – even when I go through times of
low position or suffering ?
Do I look to God’s work + impact through me in my situation ?
– or ignore the present + only look to better times ?
Do I take advantage of every situation I’m in to be used by God ?
– even when its difficult, dull or painful ?
