II Timothy Ch 3

Listen in or watch as w e cover what it means to become “entangled” in the affairs of this life, and how entanglement is deception into seemingly hopeless situations. We consider the phrase “last days” and determine what days Paul is speaking about when he lists some of the worst people of all time in verses 2-5.

We’ll examine the characteristics of those horrible people to discern who they are and how we are to turn away from them, and discuss whether Paul is speaking of unbelievers, or believers. We’ll then discern the meaning of having “…a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof…”, and what the words “trucebreakers”, “traitors”, and “lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God” imply about the identity of the people Paul is warning us about.

What does it mean to have a form of godliness? What does it mean to deny the power of it? And just who are the “silly women” Paul speaks of? And who are the reprobate?

We’ll also examine the doctrine of the inspiration of scripture, and what Paul meant that all scripture is “given” by inspiration of God. And why are the words “perfect” and throughly the correct translation rather than the substitutes found in modern English translations? Finally we close with the emphasis Paul continues to put on doctrine, specifically the doctrine given to him by Christ for the Body today living in the dispensation of God’s grace.
