Modern Snares 1 Timothy 3:7 I. The snares are always about our feet. They vary in their guise, but their purpose remains unchanged. I want to look at a few of the perils which thus beset the youth of our modern life. (1) There is the snare of materialism. I speak of it not as a theory, but as a life. In Watts' 'Mammon' there is a great pompous figure in heavy scarlet and gold. His face is fat and sightless. Brutal hands and feet are resting carelessly on the Godlike figures of the young. The... read more

Chapter 12THE RELATION OF HUMAN CONDUCT TO THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS. - 1 Timothy 3:14-16ST. PAUL here makes a pause in the Epistle. He has brought to a close some of the principal directions which he has to give respecting the preservation of pure doctrine, the conduct of public worship, and the qualifications for the ministry: and before proceeding to other topics he halts in order to insist upon the importance of these things, by pointing out what is really involved in them. Their importance... read more

III. CONCERNING THE HOUSE OF GOD CHAPTER 3 1. The overseer (1 Timothy 3:1-7 ) 2. The deacon (1 Timothy 3:8-13 ) 3. The house of God and the mystery of Godliness (1 Timothy 3:14-16 ) 1 Timothy 3:1-7 As stated before, the Church is viewed in these pastoral Epistles as the house of God. The holiness which becomes this house is to be maintained and expressed in a practical way. The different directions given as to overseers and deacons demonstrate what God esteems highly, and what He expects... read more

3:14 {6} These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:(6) Paul purposing to add many particular things pertaining to the daily office of a pastor, speaks first a word or two concerning his coming to Timothy, that he should be so much the more careful, lest at his coming he might be reproved of negligence. read more

3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the {7} house of God, which is the church of the living God, the {i} pillar and ground of the truth.(7) The pastor always has to consider how he carries out his duties in the house of the living God, in which the treasure of the truth is kept.(i) That is, with regard to man: for the Church rested upon that cornerstone, Christ, and is the preserver of the truth, but not the mother. read more

3:16 {8} And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, {k} justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.(8) There is nothing more excellent than this truth, of which the Church is the keeper and preserver here among men, the ministry of the word being appointed to that end and purpose: for it teaches us the greatest matters that may be thought, that is, that God has become... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Timothy 3:1-16

If before we have seen personal conduct that is to be consistent with assembly character, this chapter, while dealing with personal character still, connects it directly with the order of the assembly. The work of the overseer, or elder, is a good work. It is not actually an "office" one is to desire here, but the work. The bishop is simply the overseer, one who cares for the state of the assembly, and watches over its spiritual interests and conditions. Acts 20:1-38 shows these men as "the... read more

CONCERNING PUBLIC PRAYER Chapter 2 is taken up with regulations concerning public prayer. First, he directs that intercessory prayer he made for all men (1 Timothy 2:1-7 ). What class of men is especially singled out (1 Timothy 2:2 )? What selfish motive on the part of the church should induce such intercessory prayer? And yet what higher motive is suggested (1 Timothy 2:4 )? What does this verse suggest as to the object of such intercession so far as those in authority are concerned? On... read more

God Revealed 1Ti 3:16 This simplifies the whole mystery of the Godhead, as far as simplification is possible. We know now what to do: when we want to know what God is, what God does, what God thinks, what God wishes, how God governs the world, we have to look at Jesus Christ. This gives a new value to the biography of the Son of God. He is not only an historical character, he is a revelation; he was God manifest, made clear, visible, simple, intelligible. "He that hath seen me hath seen the... read more
