1 Timothy - A Bob Enyart Bible Study

Paul's first letter to Timothy is a tender, fatherly epistle written to his "true son in the faith," whom he had left behind in Ephesus to confront false teaching and shepherd a young church. In this verse-by-verse study, Pastor Bob Enyart walks you through all six chapters of this rich pastoral epistle, covering Paul's stirring testimony that "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief," the call to lift up holy hands without wrath and doubting, the qualifications for elders and deacons, sound instruction on widows and the care of family, the warning that the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and the exhortation to fight the good fight of faith and lay hold on eternal life.

Building on the foundation laid out in The Plot, Bob reads 1 Timothy in the full context of the Bible's storyline, helping you see why Paul placed such weight on guarding sound doctrine, why the standard of holiness for a pastor is simply the Christian life lived faithfully rather than a higher tier of righteousness, and how the covenant of grace shapes every practical instruction Paul gives to his young protégé. Along the way you will find thoughtful treatment of some of the most discussed passages in this letter, including what it means for an overseer to be the husband of one wife, the role of women in the assembly, the proper care of true widows, and the honor due to those who labor in the word and doctrine. Whether you are new to serious Bible study or a longtime student of God's Word, this will deepen your love for the Lord, sharpen your reading of Scripture, and stir you up to live and serve in a manner worthy of the gospel committed to our trust.
