Key Verses:1 Ti 1:15, 1 Ti 3:15-16, 1 Ti 6:11, 1 Ti 6:12

Key Words -- Key Words -- see importance of key words - learn how to mark key words and the associated discipline of how to interrogate them with 5W/H questions. Practice "interrogating" key words as well as term of conclusion (therefore), term of explanation (for), terms of purpose or result (so that, in order that, that, as a result), terms of contrast (but, yet), expressions of time (including then; until, after) and terms of comparison (like, as). You will be amazed at how your Teacher, the Holy Spirit, will illuminate your understanding, a spiritual blessing that will grow the more you practice! Be diligent! Consider the "5P's" - Pause to Ponder the Passage then Practice it in the Power of the Spirit. See also inductive Bible study  - observation (Observe With a Purpose), Interpretation (Keep Context King, Read Literally, Compare Scripture with Scripture, Consult Conservative Commentaries), and then be a doer of the Word with Application. Do not overlook "doing the word" for if you do you are deluding yourself, and are just a "smarter sinner," but not more like the Savior! As Jesus said "blessed are those who hear the word of God, and observe it." (Lk 11:28+, cf James 1:22+)

Purpose of this Epistle: 1Ti 3:15 states “I write so that you may know how one ought to conduct himself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth.”

Philip Towner - A quick scan of these letters ("Pastoral Epistles") makes it clear that Paul’s central concern in writing was to give instruction for confronting false teachers and restoring the stability of the churches. (IVP Commentary)

A C Gaebelein writes "The epistle therefore contains practical and important instructions on the order which is to be maintained in the church, as the house of God… Pure doctrine, pure worship and a faithful ministry are the leading thoughts of this pastoral letter, but he also enters into the godly conduct of the individuals which are in the church of the living God. Blessed instructions!"

John MacArthur -  Interpretive Challenges in 1 Timothy There is disagreement over the identity of the false teachers (1:3) and the genealogies (1:4) involved in their teaching. What it means to be “delivered to Satan” (1:20) has also been a source of debate. The letter contains key passages in the debate over the extent of the atonement (2:4–6; 4:10). Paul’s teaching on the role of women (2:9–15) has generated much discussion, particularly his declaration that they are not to assume leadership roles in the church (2:11,12). How women can be saved by bearing children (2:15) has also confused many. Whether the fact that an elder must be “the husband of one wife” excludes divorced or unmarried men has been disputed, as well as whether Paul refers to deacons’ wives or deaconesses (3:11). Those who believe Christians can lose their salvation cite 4:1 as support for their view. There is a question about the identity of the widows in 5:3–16—are they needy women ministered to by the church, or an order of older women ministering to the church? Does “double honor” accorded to elders who rule well (5:17,18) refer to respect or money? These will all be dealt with in their respective notes.

COMMENTARIES
AND OTHER RESOURCES
ARCHIVE.ORG

Explanation - The following list includes not only commentaries but other Christian works by well known evangelical writers. Most of the resources below are newer works (written after 1970) which previously were available only for purchase in book form or in a Bible computer program. The resources are made freely available by archive.org but have several caveats - (1) they do not allow copy and paste, (2) they can only be checked out for one hour (but can be checked out immediately when your hour expires giving you time to read or take notes on a lengthy section) and (3) they require creating an account which allows you to check out the books free of charge. To set up an account click archive.org and then click the picture of the person in right upper corner and enter email and a password. That's all you have to do. Then you can read these more modern resources free of charge! I have read or used many of these resources but not all of them so ultimately you will need to be a Berean (Acts 17:11+) as you use them. I have also selected works that are conservative and Biblically sound. If you find one that you think does not meet those criteria please send an email at https://www.preceptaustin.org/contact. The resources are listed in alphabetical order by the author's last name and some include reviews of the particular resource.

COMMENTARIES ON 1 Timothy

The Bible Exposition Commentary - Ephesians through Revelation  -  Warren Wiersbe

Rosscup - One of America’s most appreciated staunchly evangelical Bible conference teachers gives diligent, refreshing expositions. These are all of his 23 separate, earlier books in the “Be” series on the New Testament. He strikes a particular appeal with lay people as he crystallizes sections, deals with some of the verses, handles certain problems and backgrounds and applies principles. He is premillennial.

Be faithful (1 & 2 Timothy, Titus) by Wiersbe, Warren Or here - Be ready

1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon : it's always too soon to quit! by Wiersbe, Warren 

Wiersbe's Expository Outlines on the New Testament by Wiersbe, Warren W

Cyril Barber - This is a book of exceptional merit. Pastors, missionaries, and Christian workers will profit from its use. Wiersbe introduces each book of the NT, provides an outline, and then furnishes his readers with a chapter-by-chapter discussion of the contents. The homiletic style is a “plus.” Recommended.

With the Word - Devotional Commentary - Warren Wiersbe - 428 ratings - Chapter by chapter. Helpful insights.

The Preacher's Outline & Sermon Bible : New Testament, King James Version - Acts, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians - This is a very useful resource which always includes numerous related cross-references. It will be of aid to you preaching and teaching. 

Exposition of the Pastoral Epistles by Hendriksen, William, 

James Rosscup - As usual, Hendriksen is detailed and offers much aid in word meanings, possible views which he documents, and full discussion of the passages. His commentary is one of the finer works for serious students.

The pastoral epistles : an introduction and commentary by Guthrie, Donald,

James Rosscup - A recent work, this has a good introduction, but the commentary lacks detail. The author is better known for his three-volume work on New Testament introduction. This book is helpful, especially for an up-to-date conservative answer to critical views concerning introductory matters. The revisions are not extensive since the 1957 edition.

1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, James by Morris, Leon,

Guard the truth : the message of 1 Timothy & Titus by Stott, John R. W

James Rosscup - (note on 2 Timothy but relates to 1 Timothy) An articulate and well-organized exposition of Second Timothy that is very suggestive for messages on the epistle. Though brief, Stott has quite good insight into the meaning of verses and has a rare ability to state truth succinctly.

Cyril Barber - The first volume in a new series entitled The Bible Speaks Today. Deserves to be read by all who are interested in living dynamically for Christ. Highly recommended. 2

See also Fighting the good fight : 12 studies with commentary for individuals or groups by Stott, John R. W

1 & 2 Timothy and Titus : to guard the deposit by Hughes, R. Kent, Rosscup ranks the #3 (out of 6) expositional commentary.

Cyril Barber - The authors include personal anecdotes in these commentaries, and this gives their work a downto-earth quality. They adhere to the text and are not afraid to champion interpretations (e.g., of 1 Timothy 2:11-12) that are unpopular in today’s milieu. Anyone teaching or preaching on these “pastoral” epistles will find considerable help in these pages.

James Rosscup - Hughes does the Timothys, Chapell Titus, both giving frequently refreshing survey expositions along homiletically useful, applicational lines for pastors, teachers, students, and laity. Illustrations occur often, and solid explanation in between is not always present (cf. I Tim. 2:1–2; and v. 8, the significance of raised hands). On some texts basic explanation is quite good (2:11–15), yet on v. 15 the light hint at a meaning does not give much to go on (cf. also on 4:10, 16, or 2 Tim. 4:8, in the latter a vagueness on the NT “crown” concept). Overall, the treatments help mostly on often choice illustrations and pastoral applications, and this is well worth the time.

The letters to Timothy and Titus by MacDonald, William (2003) 148 pages.

Pastoral Epistles by Mounce, William D

James Rosscup - Here is one of the best three exegetical works in recent years for advanced students and teachers wanting detail (cf. also Marshall and Knight). The 641 big pages, in typical WBC form, provide much detailed grappling with grammar, word study, context, background, customs, etc., while showing helpful sources from voluminous awareness on issues. Mounce is open to Pauline authorship, and usually puts forth solid help by carefully explaining data.

Cyril Barber - Defends the Pauline authorship, but adopts a vacillating approach to passages dealing with gender roles. Some disturbing elements are to be noted in Mounce’s presentation, for example his statement that “there is no salvation apart from discipleship” (p. 434). This is a very full work and the judicious reader has much to gain from it.

The letters to Timothy and Titus by Towner, Philip H.,

James Rosscup - Favoring authorship by Paul (30–32), Towner provides a succinct, lucid commentary that sometimes explains verses or parts of them, sometimes ignores things (as “especially those who believe,” 4:10; “save both yourself and your hearers,” 4:16; or 2 Tim. 4:8, where the words do not really resolve Towner’s idea that a faithful life is necessary for receiving a crown, final righteousness, with this being of grace and not earned). Overall, the work seems below average, a mixture of being of some help and of little help, this depending on which verse. It will be of mediocre benefit only to those wanting a cursory, yet easily flowing guide. It grew out of Towner’s Ph. D. dissertation under I. Howard Marshall at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, but does not approach Marshall’s usual kind of serious explanation.

The Pastoral Epistles : studies in 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus by Kent, Homer Austin,

James Rosscup - This is a fairly detailed exposition that usually gives various views on many of the larger interpretive problems and provides reasons for the view favored. Kent uses his own translation. The outline is very clear, and the evangelical exposition is geared for Bible college students, pastors desiring a brief, knowledgeable survey that comes right to the point without being technical, and laymen wanting a commentary that will satisfy them without losing them.

Cyril Barber - This exemplary study has stood the test of time. Now, in this new, revised edition, Kent's commentary should continue to enjoy wide-spread acceptance. 2

1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus by Johnson, Luke Timothy

James Rosscup - A highly regarded scholar provides clear results of great industry in older and newer thought. One gains access to much on word study, exegetical details, ways of grasping Paul’s meaning, and literature that probes issues. Johnson is confident that Paul was the author. The work is quite worthwhile in opening up many parts of the books.

Cyril Barber - Begins with the reasons for the neglect of the Pastorals, but ignores the effect those who have denied their Pauline authorship has had on others. Provides new ideas on the values inherent in these canonical works.

The interpretation of st. paul's epistles to the colossians, to the thessalonians, to timothy, to titus and to philemon by R.C.H. Lenski - Lutheran commentator who writes excellent notes. An exhaustive amillennial commentary.

1 and 2 Timothy, Titus by Fee, Gordon D; Gasque, W. Ward

James Rosscup - This is a reworking of his 1984 work in the Good News Commentary (San Francisco: Harper and Row). As in his work on I Corinthians, Fee is clear in most cases (not easy to follow when he gets too terse), capable on Greek grammar and local setting, unity and integrity of the books. Each section has a summary. He aims to be of help to teachers, preachers and students. His belief is that Paul authored the books and wrote to meet specific situations in the churches, not to give a manual for the church as some have held. The work has switched from the GNT to the NIV. Fee is evangelical.

The communicator's commentary. 1, 2 Thessalonians, 1, 2 Timothy, Titus by Demarest, Gary W (Now published as the Preacher's Commentary)

First and second Timothy and Titus by Oden, Thomas C

Cyril Barber - Defends the Pauline authorship as well as two Roman imprisonments for the apostle Paul. Provides the kind of comments on the text that preachers will find most helpful.

1 & 2 Timothy and Titus by Gangel, Kenneth - This is more like a workbook with questions and short explanatory notes

Walking in power, love, and discipline - 1 Timothy  and 2 Timothy and Titus by Arthur, Kay,

The pastoral letters: commentary on the first and second letters to Timothy and the letter to Titus by Hanson, Anthony Tyrrell

The pastoral epistles : based on the Revised Standard Version by Hanson, Anthony Tyrrell

Cyril Barber - This totally new work is not to be confused with Hanson's Studies in the Pastoral Epistles (1968). His comments are incisive and worthy of serious consideration.

The faithful sayings in the pastoral letters by Knight, George W. (George William), 1931-

Very well done conservative commentary that interprets Scripture from a literal perspective   user reviews

Any Bible student will gain new insights through this one-volume commentary based on the timeless King James Version of the Bible.

(2) The King James Study Bible Second Edition 2240 pages (2013) (Thomas Nelson) General Editor - Edward Hindson with multiple contributing editors. . 3,194 ratings. Pre-millennial. See introduction on How to Use this Study Bible.

(3) NKJV Study Bible: New King James Version Study Bible (formerly "The Nelson Study Bible - NKJV") by Earl D Radmacher; Ronald Barclay Allen; Wayne H House. 2345 pages. (1997, 2007). Very helpful notes. Conservative. Pre-millennial.  917 ratings

(4) The Wycliffe Bible Commentary - only the New Testament (for OT see below to borrow) - 1126 pages. (1971) Everett F Harrison - Editor of New Testament. Uses the KJV.  Strictly speaking not a study Bible, but short notes are similar. KJV text in left column, commentary notes in right column. The comments are generally verse by verse, short, conservative and to the point. Pre-millennial.

Quote from Henry Alford (1810-1871 - not a dispensationalist!) on Revelation 20 - "It will have been long ago anticipated by the readers of this Commentary, that I cannot consent to distort words from their plain sense and chronological place in the prophecy, on account of any considerations of difficulty, or any risk of abuses which the doctrine of the millennium may bring with it. Those who lived next to the Apostles, and the whole Church for 300 years, understood them in the plain literal sense: and it is a strange sight in these days to see expositors who are among the first in reverence of antiquity, complacently casting aside the most cogent instance of consensus which primitive antiquity presents. As regards the text itself, no legitimate treatment of it will extort what is known as the spiritual interpretation now in fashion.”

Dictionary of Biblical Imagery - free for use online with no restrictions (i.e., you do not need to borrow this book). Editors Leland Ryken, J C Wilhoit, Tremper Longman III - This is a potential treasure chest to aid your preaching and teaching as it analyzes the meaning of a host of Biblical figures of speech. Clue - use the "One-page view" which then allows you to copy and paste text. One downside is there is no index, so you need to search 3291 pages for entries which are alphabetical.

Rosscup - Conservative and premillennial scholars here have been experts in their fields. The work contains brief introductions and attempts to give a verse-by-verse exposition, though it does skip over some verses. The treatments vary with the authors, but as a whole it is a fine one-volume commentary for pastors and students to use or give to a layman. Outstanding sections include, for example: Whitcomb on Ezra-Nehemiah-Esther; Culver on Daniel; Ladd on Acts; Harrison on Galatians; Johnson on I Corinthians; and Ryrie on the Johannine Epistles.

The comments are brief but meaty and can really help your study through a given book. A sleeper in my opinion. 

The Experiencing God Study Bible: the Bible for knowing and doing the will of God - Blackaby, Henry (1996) 1968 pages - CHECK THIS ONE! Each chapter begins with several questions under the title "PREPARE TO MEET GOD." Then you will interesting symbols before many of the passages. The chapter ends with a "DID YOU NOTICE?" question. This might make a "dry chapter" jump off the page! Read some of the 48 ratings

NLT Study Bible (Illustration Version) 

Disciple's Study Bible: New international version 54 ratings Not that helpful for verse by verse study. Focuses on application of Christian doctrines. 10,000 annotations; doctrinal summaries, "Life Helps" section relate doctrine to everyday discipleship. 

The Living Insights Study Bible : New International Version - Charles Swindoll. Notes are good but somewhat sparse and not verse by verse.

With the Word - Devotional Commentary - Warren Wiersbe - 428 ratings

Evangelical Commentary on the Bible - Judges by Andrew Boling (20 pages); editor Walter Elwell (1989) 1239 pages. User reviews. (See also Boling's 380 page commentary on Judges the Anchor Bible Series)

Halley's Bible Handbook Henry H. Halley - (2000) 2720 pages (much larger than original edition in 1965 and no time limit on use). (Halley's Bible handbook : an abbreviated Bible commentary - one hour limit 1965 872 pages)

Rosscup - A much-used older evangelical handbook bringing together a brief commentary on Bible books, some key archaeological findings, historical background, maps, quotes, etc. It is helpful to a lay Bible teacher, Sunday School leader, or pastor looking for quick, pertinent information on a Bible book. This is the 72nd printing somewhat revised. Halley packed in much information. Unger’s is better overall, but that is not to say that Halley’s will not provide much help on basic information.

The Shaw Pocket Bible Handbook - Editor - Walter Elwell (1984) 408 pages.

"This hardback is small in size but packed full of content: Brief summaries of every book of the bible, cultural, archaeological and historical info, word definitions, pictures, maps and charts." Worth checking!

HENRY ALFORD
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 
The New Testament for English Readers

(Read his fascinating brief biography - Henry Alford and Phil Johnson's related comments)

James Rosscup writes that Alford's series on the New Testament "contains much that is valuable in the Greek New Testament...though all of the Greek New Testament words have been changed to English throughout." (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Works).

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (see his comments in following entry on Alford).

Editorial Note: If you are not proficient in Greek, you will find this work considerably more useful than the following work by Alford, because in this volume he translates the Greek and Latin into English. While the "The Greek New Testament" is longer (e.g., English version of 1John = 66 pages compared to Greek version = 94 pages in part because the latter includes comments of more technical nature), the substance of the commentary is otherwise similar to that found in the "NT for English Readers".

PAUL APPLE
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY

101 page modern commentary. Conservative. Evangelical. Each section includes numerous excellent quotes (including "Quotes for Reflection"), devotional thoughts and questions.

• 1 Timothy Local Church Primer: Proper Leadership & Conduct in the Household of God

Here is an example of the type of quotes on 1 Timothy 1 (and these are just representative samples from 1 Timothy 1:1-2)...

I. AUTHOR = PAUL

A. His Authority = "an apostle of Christ Jesus" one sent by God

Ellicott: "didn't merely derive his commission from Christ, but belonged to Him."

B. His Authentication = "according to the commandment"

Wiersbe: "This word means 'a royal commission.' Both Paul and Timothy were sent by the King of kings!"

Campbell: "The word … is derived from two Greek words which literally mean to arrange upon or put an order upon. The noun form used here suggests that God was the one who had arranged, ordered, and mandated that Paul should be an apostle."

Guthrie: "a man under orders"

1. "of God our Savior"

2. "and of Christ Jesus, who is our hope"

Kent: "As the Father is the fountain of our salvation, so Christ is the embodiment of our hope. We are looking for Him to return (Titus 2:13). In Him are all our expectations. Our basis for eternal life with all its glories lies in the fact of our union with Christ…"

Hendriksen: "'our Hope' -- the very foundation for our earnest yearning, our confident expectation, and our patient waiting for the manifestation of salvation in all its fulness."

II. RECIPIENT = TIMOTHY

A. Family Relationship = "my true child" tone of tender love, intimacy

Campbell: "…'genuine', spiritually legitimate, and true child in the faith. This word speaks of one who is the opposite of being illegitimate, spurious, or a phony."

---

Kent: "Mercy (eleos) is what Timothy and all believers need daily when conscious of failure."

Towner: "At the outset, Paul thus reminds Timothy that God's unearnable love and peace will overshadow his servant even in the most difficult of circumstances."

---

DEVOTIONAL QUESTIONS:

1) Reflect on the loyalty that the original apostles had to their Master = the one who had called and commissioned them and sent them out on such a perilous mission. How deep and intense is our loyalty to Christ Jesus?

2) Do we have our Hope firmly fixed on the person of Christ and the expectation of His return? What tends to distract us from focusing on our hope or discourage us?

3) Do we know of any false teachers who are illegitimate pretenders to a family relationship with Christ (in contrast to the example of Timothy who is legit)?

4) Are we daily drawing upon God's resources of grace, mercy and peace which are intended for our benefit?

---

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION:

Towner: "At the core of the false teaching Timothy faced was an out-of-balance view of salvation: the heretics proclaimed that the End had come and the resurrection had occurred… and the return of Christ was all but forgotten. Here at the outset Paul begins to assert his balanced theology: this is the age of salvation, but salvation's completion awaits the Second Coming of Christ, our hope."

Campbell: "Timothy was a genuine child in the sphere of the faith, in the sphere of that which was believed, or in the sphere of a given body of truth and doctrine. In other words, Timothy was a genuine child in holding fast to the truth which Paul had committed unto him (cf. 6:20; 2 Tim. 2:2), which is synonymous with the message and Gospel of the Mystery (cf. Eph. 3:8-9; Rom. 16:25)."

Kent: "Timothy's task in Ephesus was the most difficult he had ever faced. He needed all the gifts of God's grace. A tradition, recorded by Eusebius, says that Timothy was later beaten to death by a mob in Ephesus because of his arraignment of the idolatrous immorality of the worship of Diana." (ED: See map of Ephesus at time of Paul)

Hiebert: "This assertion, in the very salutation, of the writer's apostolic authority is indicative of the contents of the letter. It is not simply a note of personal friendship. It is addressed to Timothy as the apostle's personal representative at Ephesus. While addressed to him personally, the letter has an official character. It is intended to certify to the churches with whom Timothy is dealing that the instructions it contains are authoritative and that Timothy is authorized to act as the delegate of Paul himself."

ALBERT BARNES
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

Notes on the New Testament

James Rosscup writes that Barnes "includes 16 volumes on the Old Testament, 11 on the New Testament. The New Testament part of this old work was first published in 1832–1851. Various authors contributed. It is evangelical and amillennial...Often the explanations of verses are very worthwhile." (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Works)

C H Spurgeon "Albert Barnes is a learned and able divine, but his productions are unequal in value, the gospels are of comparatively little worth, but his other comments are extremely useful for Sunday-school teachers and persons with a narrow range of reading, endowed with enough good sense to discriminate between good and evil....Placed by the side of the great masters, Barnes is a lesser light, but taking his work for what it is and professes to be, no minister can afford to be without it, and this is no small praise for works which were only intended for Sunday-school teachers." (Spurgeon, C. H. Lectures to my Students, Vol. 4: Commenting and Commentaries; Lectures Addressed to the students of the Pastors' College, Metropolitan Tabernacle)

WILLIAM BARCLAY
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 
Daily Study Bible

James Rosscup: This is a lucid and well-organized exposition of the epistles with many helpful lists on different facets of truth John can have in mind at different points as on “light” and “darkness” in I John 1:5. There is stimulating background material and warm application. (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An annotated bibliography of selected works).

D Edmond Hiebert - Prints the author's own translation. A series of popular studies whose strong point is word study. Contains good illustrative material. Part of the author's interpretation follows a liberal position. Barclay holds that Christ's descent into Hades gave those who there heard Him a second chance.

Cereghin - A liberal exposition that is strong in historical background and vocabulary. He thinks a later editor pieced I Timothy together from fragments of Paul's writing (17); contrasts Christianity with Gnosticism (33-35); often gives word studies; lists multiple marriages of the first century (90); defines a saint as someone "in whom Christ lives again" (95); attacks total abstinence from alcoholic beverages (139).

Comment: I appreciate Barclay's unique insights on Greek words, but clearly his teaching about a "second chance" is NOT sound doctrine! Be an Acts 17:11 Berean with Barclay. See discussion of his orthodoxy especially the article "The Enigmatic William Barclay".

JOHANN BENGEL
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY
THE GNOMON 

Short Pithy Comments

C H Spurgeon wrote that Bengel's NT commentary "is the Scholar's delight! Bengel condensed more matter into a line than can be extracted from pages of other writers."

JOHANN BENGEL
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY SERMONS
The New Testament for English Readers

Spurgeon comments on the goal to make Bengel's Gnomon (listed above) more accessible -- "Such is the professed aim of this commentary, and the compilers have very fairly carried out their intentions. The whole of Bengel’s Gnomon is bodily transferred into the work, and as 120 years have elapsed since the first issue of that book, it may be supposed that much has since been added to the wealth of Scripture exposition; the substance of this has been incorporated in brackets, so as to bring it down to the present advanced state of knowledge. We strongly advise the purchase of this book, as it...will well repay an attentive perusal. Tischendorf and Alford have contributed largely...to make this one of the most lucid and concise commentaries on the text and teachings of the New Testament" (Spurgeon, C. H. Lectures to my Students, Vol. 4: Commenting and Commentaries; Lectures Addressed to the students of the Pastors' College, Metropolitan Tabernacle)

F W Farrar writes that Bengel's "Gnomon is a mine of priceless gems. It contains sentence after sentence exquisitely terse and finished, and throbbing with spiritual light. Few writers have so admirably succeeded in expressing in a few words the inmost purpose of each of the Epistles. A generation crowded with writers whose theology abounded in mutual anathemas is yet redeemed from the charge of sterility which has produced such a theologian as Bengel. His work must continue to have its value so long as men can recognise the richest fruits of a noble intellect, a pure spirit, and a blameless life. "Lord Jesus, unto Thee I live, unto Thee I suffer, unto Thee I die; Thine I am, living or dying." These words were repeated to him in his last moments, and on hearing them he pointed with his right hand to his heart, and fell asleep in peace." (Amen!) (History of Interpretation: Eight Lectures Preached Before the University of Oxford in the Year 1885).

John Wesley said of Bengel "I know of no commentator on the Bible equal to Bengel" and referred to him as "The great light of the Christian world."

JOHN CALVIN
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

James Rosscup - Calvin was not only a great theologian but also a great expositor, and his insight into Scripture contributed to his grasp of doctrinal truth. His commentaries are deep in spiritual understanding, usually helpful on problem passages, and refreshing in a devotional sense to the really interested reader. He usually offers good help on a passage. The present work skips Judges, Ruth, Samuel, Kings, Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, II and III John and Revelation. Calvin is amillennial on long-range prophecy, but in other respects usually has very contributive perception on passages and doctrinal values edifying to the believer. He also can be very wordy, but the serious and patient glean much. 

Cyril Barber - he messages were taken down in shorthand and were later translated by a person who signed himself "L.T" Spurgeon highly esteemed these messages, and they are now available again in the same format as that which graced the homes of Puritan laypeople three hundred years ago. Their richness and relevance will amply repay the time spent mastering their contents. This is a worthy reprint, beautifully bound, and printed on fine paper. Recommended

D Edmond Hiebert - Valuable for insights into Reformation day views.

At the table, she turned to her six-year-old daughter and said, “Would you like to say the blessing?” I wouldn’t know what to say,” she replied. “Just say what you hear Mommy say,” the mom said. The daughter bowed her head and said: “Dear Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?

  Sample Illustration on 1 Timothy 4:15 - In Hampton Court near London, there is a grapevine under glass; it is about 1,000 years old and has but one root which is at least two feet thick.  Some of the branches are 200 feet long. Because of skillful cutting and pruning, the vine produces several tons of grapes each year. It may be old, but it still grows and still bears fruit.
• 1 Timothy 5:1-16 

  Sample Illustration on 1 Timothy 5:1-16 -When a butterfly or moth is struggling to get out of its chrysalis, it’s important that it’s allowed to struggle. If your child is doing a science project and watching the chrysalis, it’s important that you don’t try to help the creature out by cutting the cocoon, thinking you’d make it easier for the butterfly. The butterfly needs to squeeze out the fluid that’s inside of the wings, and if it doesn’t have the tiny hold in the cocoon to squeeze it out of, it won’t be able to fly. Parents face the same issue when it comes to raising their kids. Your kids need to learn to know the pain of falling down every once in a while. They need to know the pain of failure if they are going to learn to push through and grow. Sometimes our helping others isn’t really helping at all. Sometimes we are enabling others to end up getting themselves into trouble.

• 1 Timothy 5:17-25 
• 1 Timothy 6 
  Sample Illustration on 1 Timothy 6:2 - The boss was complaining in the staff meeting the other day that he wasn’t getting any respect. Later that morning he went to a local sign shop and bought a small sign that read, “I’m the Boss”. He then taped it to his office door. Later that day when he returned from lunch, he found that someone had taped a note to the sign that said. “Your wife called, she wants her sign back!”
  Sample Illustration on 1 Timothy 6:2 - An ambitious, young executive is working late at corporate headquarters one evening. As he comes out of his office about 8:00 PM he sees the Big Boss standing by the shredder in the hallway, a piece of paper in his hand. “Do you know how to work this thing?” the older man asks “My secretary’s gone home and I don’t know how to run it.” “Yes, sir,” says the young executive, who efficiently turns on the machine, takes the paper from the other man, and feeds it in. “Great,” says his boss, “I just need the one copy...”

  Sample Illustration on 1 Timothy 6:10 - Discouragement comes when you try to start with what you wish you had but don't have.  And it intensifies when you insist on trying to be in a position you are not in and probably never will be in.-- Stuart Briscoe,

Click for brief critique of Clarke

James Rosscup - This old, conservative Wesleyan Methodist work is good devotionally and aggressive for righteous living. Laypeople can find it still valuable today. It is Arminian in viewpoint and thus helpful, for example, in showing the reader how this approach deals with texts involving the eternal security question. The work contains much background material from many sources on all books of the Bible.

PATRICK FAIRBAIRN
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

Spurgeon's assessment of Fairbairn's pastoral epistles: "What with a good translation, full defense of the Apostolic authorship of the Epistles, fruitful comments, and profitable dissertations, this volume is about as complete a guide to the smaller epistles as one could desire." (From Spurgeon's Commenting on Commentaries - Pastoral Epistles) (Fairbairn is amillennial)

John Cereghin - What a good translation, full defense of the apostolic authorship of the epistles, fruitful comments and profitable dissertations, this volume is as complete a guide to the smaller epistles as one could desire. his old, standard treatment shows how pastors may use the Greek text to aid their exposition. A fine work in spite of its age.

D Edmond Hiebert - Uses the Greek text of Tischendorf and the author's translation on facing pages. A voluminous (nearly 450 pages) exposition by a conservative Scottish theologian. Still worth consulting but devoid of the results of recent scholarship.

Cyril Barber - A particularly appropriate reprint in light of the fact that so many men are leaving the ministry on account of its unusual pressures. Fairbairn provides a delightful example of exegesis aiding the exposition of the text.

A C GAEBELEIN
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 
Annotated Bible

James Rosscup - This dispensationally oriented work is not verse-by-verse, but deals with the exposition on a broader scale, treating blocks of thought within the chapters. Cf. also Arno C. Gaebelein, Gaebelein’s Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible (I Volume, Neptune, NJ: Loizeaux, 1985), the Annotated Bible revised. The author was a popular evangelical Bible teacher of the first part of the century, much like H. A. Ironside in his diligent but broad, practical expositions of Bible books. Gaebelein was premillennial and dispensational, and editor for many years of Our Hope Magazine.

JOHN GILL
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

James Rosscup - Gill (1697–1771), a pastor of England, wrote these which are two-column pages, ca. 900–1,000 pages per volume, Originally they were 9 volumes, folio. He also wrote Body of Divinity, 3 volumes, and several other volumes. His commentary is evangelical, wrestles with texts, is often wordy and not to the point but with worthy things for the patient who follow the ponderous detail and fish out slowly what his interpretation of a text is. He feels the thousand years in Revelation 20 cannot begin until after the conversion of the Jews and the bringing in of the fullness of the Gentiles and destruction of all antiChristian powers (volume 6, p. 1063) but in an amillennial sense of new heavens and new earth coming right after Christ’s second advent (1064–65), and the literal thousand years of binding at the same time. He feels the group that gathers against the holy city at the end of the thousand years is the resurrected wicked dead from the four quarters of the earth (i.e. from all the earth, etc. (1067).  

Spurgeon - Beyond all controversy, Gill was one of the most able Hebraists of his day, and in other matters no mean proficient...His ultraism is discarded, but his learning is respected: the world and the church take leave to question his dogmatism, but they both bow before his erudition. Probably no man since Gill’s days has at all equalled him in the matter of Rabbinical learning.

He preached in the same church as C. H. Spurgeon over one hundred years earlier. Yet most people today have never heard of John Gill. This is unfortunate, since his works contain priceless gems of information that are found nowhere except in the ancient writings of the Jews.

MATTHEW HENRY
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

Spurgeon - A Christian man wishing for the cream of expository writers could not make a better purchase. Ministers, as a rule, should not buy condensations, but get the works themselves.

James Rosscup - This evangelical work, devotional in character, has been in constant demand for about 280 years. Its insight into human problems is great, but it often does not deal adequately with problems in the text. The one-volume form eliminates the Biblical text and is thus less bulky. It has sold very well. The late Wilbur M. Smith, internationally noted Bible teacher, seminary professor and lover of books, tabbed this “The greatest devotional commentary ever written”. Henry was born in a Welch farmhouse, studied law, and became a Presbyterian minister near London. He wrote this commentary in the last 13 years before he died at 52 in 1714. The first of six volumes was published in 1708. He completed through Acts, and the rest of the New Testament was done by 14 clergymen. (Ed: Thus James are not the comments of Matthew Henry).

INTERVARSITY PRESS
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY
Philip H. Towner 

James Rosscup - Favoring authorship by Paul (30–32), Towner provides a succinct, lucid commentary that sometimes explains verses or parts of them, sometimes ignores things (as “especially those who believe,” 4:10; “save both yourself and your hearers,” 4:16; or 2 Tim. 4:8, where the words do not really resolve Towner’s idea that a faithful life is necessary for receiving a crown, final righteousness, with this being of grace and not earned). Overall, the work seems below average, a mixture of being of some help and of little help, this depending on which verse. It will be of mediocre benefit only to those wanting a cursory, yet easily flowing guide. It grew out of Towner’s Ph. D. dissertation under I. Howard Marshall at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, but does not approach Marshall’s usual kind of serious explanation.

1 Timothy 1

JAMIESON, FAUSSET, BROWN
1 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY 

Rosscup - This is a helpful old set of 1863 for laypeople and pastors to have because it usually comments at least to some degree on problems. Though terse, it provides something good on almost any passage, phrase by phrase and is to some degree critical in nature. It is evangelical. There is also a 1-volume edition, briefer at some points (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1961). Especially in its multi-volume form this is one of the old evangelical works that offers fairly solid though brief help on many verses. Spurgeon said, “It contains so great a variety of information that if a man had no other exposition he would find himself at no great loss if he possessed this and used it diligently” (Commenting and Commentaries, p. 3). Things have changed greatly since this assessment! It is primarily of help to pastors and lay people looking for quick, though usually somewhat knowledgeable treatments on verses.

Spurgeon - A really standard work. We consult it continually, and with growing interest. Mr. Fausset’s portion strikes us as being of the highest order. 

My Comment - This is one of the best older (Pre-1800) works on interpretation of prophecy as it tends to interpret the text literally and not allegorically.

Explanatory Analysis of St. Paul's First Epistle to Timothy (1897)

Cyril Barber - This "first century message to twentieth century pastors" is a work of rare merit, and we welcome its reappearance.

Liddon structures the text and intersperses his comments between the structured lines. Interesting but somewhat difficult to follow. There is also a considerable amount of Greek so a working knowledge of Greek would be necessary to derive the most value from this work.

JOHN MACARTHUR
1 TIMOTHY SERMONS

Excellent Expository Sermons. Recommended

Cyril Barber (commenting on MacArthur's printed commentary which is similar to his sermons) - This homiletic exposition ranks as one of the best on Paul’s letter to Titus. It is thorough, practical, and vitally related to the needs of both people and the church. Pastors as well as lay people will appreciate the writer’s insights. Recommended. (The Minister's Library - Volume 3)

James Rosscup - One of the world’s most widely-known pastors gives articulate and rather detailed, basic expositions of verses with arresting illustrations. He deals with word meaning, flow of context, background, and sometimes mentions other views. The works are especially profitable for pastors, students, and lay readers aroused to read about main expositional issues and to grow.

ALEXANDER MACLAREN
1 TIMOTHY SERMONS

James Rosscup - This evangelical work is both homiletical and expository and is often very good homiletically but weaker otherwise. Helpful in discussing Bible characters, it is weak in prophecy at times because of allegorization. It is not really as valuable today as many other sets for the serious Bible student. The expositions are in the form of sermons.

2 TIMOTHY COMMENTARY
Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament

Rosscup - This work, with that of Bernard among older efforts, deals with the Greek text in a thorough manner and offers the student much help. It is one of the more valuable commentaries on the Greek.

D Edmond Hiebert - Greek text. A full exegetical treatment of these epistles by an evangelical German scholar of the past century (1893). Scholarly and technical, providing references to scholarly views of the authors own times.

CYRIL BARBER - from "The Minister's Library - Volume 2" and "The Minister's Library - Volume 3"

• *Bernard, John Henry. The Pastoral Epistles. Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1980. First published in the Cambridge Greek Testament series in 1899, this exegetical study is preceded by a lengthy introduction. A critical edition of the Greek text follows and then a word-byword or phrase-by-phrase exposition of the text. Excellent.
• Caird, George Bradford. Paul's Letters from Prison. New Clarendon Bible. London: Oxford University Press, 1976. One of the better works in this series. Of value for its exegetical insights.
• *Calvin, John. Sermons on the Epistles of Timothy and Titus. Edinburgh, U.K./Carlisle, Pa.: Banner of Truth Trust, 1983. First published in 1579, this facsimile edition consisting of 1,248 pages of exposition and application contains the great Reformer's messages delivered before the congregation of the Cathedral of St. Peter, Geneva. The messages were taken down in shorthand and were later translated by a person who signed himself "L.T" Spurgeon highly esteemed these messages, and they are now available again in the same format as that which graced the homes of Puritan laypeople three hundred years ago. Their richness and relevance will amply repay the time spent mastering their contents. This is a worthy reprint, beautifully bound, and printed on fine paper. Recommended
• *Clark, Gordon Haddon. The Pastoral Epistles. Jefferson, Md.: Trinity Foundation, 1983. Uses these epistles to address some of the complex problems facing the church today. Provides an informative exposition, and deftly applies the truth of what Paul taught to the needs of believers. Favors the Reformed tradition.
• Dibelius, Martin, and Hans Conzelmann. The Pastoral Epistles. Translated by P Buttolph and A. Yarbro. Edited by H. Koester. Philadelphia: Fortress Press, 1972. A commentary built on the premise that these epistles are unauthentic and that a form-critical approach is indispensable to exegesis and a proper understanding of their meaning. The handling of the text is thorough and exacting. The work, however, does not give evidence of having any of those features that a pastor will find helpful as he prepares his messages.
• Fairbaim, Patrick. The Pastoral Epistles. Minneapolis: Klock & Klock Christian Publishers, 1980. A particularly appropriate reprint in light of the fact that so many men are leaving the ministry on account of its unusual pressures. Fairbairn provides a delightful example of exegesis aiding the exposition of the text.
• Fee, Gordon D. First and Second Timothy, Titus. Revised ed. New International Commentary on the New Testament. Peabody, ME: Hendricksen Publishers, 1988. Based on the NIV, this verse-by-verse commentary succeeds in highlighting the most important elements of these epistles. Conservative and non-technical. Ideal for lay Bible study.
• Fernando, Ajith. Leadership Lifestyle: A Study of 1 Timothy. Wheaton, Ill.: Tyndale House Publishers, 1985. Drawing heavily on other authors for his information on leadership, Fernando deals solely with the English text of 1 Timothy. The result is a work of interest but one that lacks depth and fails to provide the reader with anything of lasting significance.
• *Gromacki, Robert Glenn.  Stand True to the Charge: An Exposition of I Timothy. Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1982. A fine treatment of Paul's message to a young pastor. Describes the essence of the ministry with guidelines for the establishment of local churches.
• Guthrie, Donald. The Pastoral Epistles: An Introduction and Commentary. Revised ed. Tyndale New Testament Commentaries. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1990. First published in 1957, this excellent lay-level commentary has already proven its worth many times over. Now in its revised format it will continue to enrich the lives of those who read it. Recommended.
• Hanson, Anthony Tyrell. The Pastoral Epistles. New Century Bible Commentary. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1982. This totally new work is not to be confused with Hanson's Studies in the Pastoral Epistles (1968). His comments are incisive and worthy of serious consideration.
• Houlden, J. L. The Pastoral Epistles: 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus. Penguin New Testament Commentaries. London: Penguin Books, 1975. (Exceedingly brief. This well-written but biased interpretation attempts to establish a nonPauline authorship for these letters. Its redeeming feature lies in its exegetical insights. In other matters, however, it is unreliable.
• Hughes, R. Kent, and Bryan Chapell. 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus. Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2000. The authors include personal anecdotes in these commentaries, and this gives their work a downto-earth quality. They adhere to the text and are not afraid to champion interpretations (e.g., of 1 Timothy 2:11-12) that are unpopular in today’s milieu. Anyone teaching or preaching on these “pastoral” epistles will find considerable help in these pages.
• Johnson, Luke Timothy. First Timothy, Second Timothy, Titus. Knox Preaching Guides. Atlanta: John Knox Press, 1987. Begins with the reasons for the neglect of the Pastorals, but ignores the effect those who have denied their Pauline authorship has had on others. Provides new ideas on the values inherent in these canonical works.
• *Kent, Homer Austin, Jr. The Pastoral Epistles: Studies in 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus. Rev ed. Chicago: Moody Press, 1982. This exemplary study has stood the test of time. Now, in this new, revised edition, Kent's commentary should continue to enjoy wide-spread acceptance.
• Knight, George William, III. The Pastoral Epistles: A Commentary on the Greek Text. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1992. Whatever Knight writes about is deserving of our serious consideration. In this full-scale commentary on the Greek text Knight pays careful attention to the comments of previous interpreters, both ancient and modern, before offering his own detailed explanation of the meaning of Paul’s words. For the benefit of preachers, he makes available the meanings and interrelationships of Greek words, and then identifies Paul’s probable intent behind his usage of a specific word or phrase. Included is the background of each letter, the personalities and circumstances of the recipients, and the kind of data that preachers will find useful as they apply the text
• Lea, Thomas D., and Hayne P. Griffin, Jr. 1, 2 Timothy, Titus. New American Commentary. Nashville: Broadman Press, 1992. Written in a readable style, this volume aims at explaining the doctrinal teaching of each letter. The introductions are helpful and defend Paul’s authorship. Outlines and summaries will be welcomed by pastors.
• *Liddon, Henry Parry. Explanatory Analysis of St. Paul's First Epistle to Timothy. Minneapolis: Klock & Klock Christian Publishers, 1978. This "first century message to twentieth century pastors" is a work of rare merit, and we welcome its reappearance.
• MacArthur, John F., Jr. First Timothy. MacArthur New Testament Commentary. Chicago: Moody Press, 1995. This, the first of MacArthur’s commentaries on the Pastoral Epistles, makes available to readers a wealth of information about the local church, its organization and outreach. The author is conservative in his handling of the Biblical text, adheres to the Pauline authorship, and dates 1 Timothy about A.D. 63-64. Recommended.
• Marshall, I. Howard. The Pastoral Epistles. International Critical Commentary. Edinburgh: Clark, 1999. As always Marshall provides an excellent discussion of these letters, though he hedges the issue of Paul’s authorship. The treatment of Greek words and syntax places this work among the best ever written on these canonical books. Marshall brings together a vast amount of material, and preachers will find his discussion of different topics helpful.
• Mounce, William D. Pastoral Epistles. Word Biblical Commentary. Nashville: Nelson, 2000. Defends the Pauline authorship, but adopts a vacillating approach to passages dealing with gender roles. Some disturbing elements are to be noted in Mounce’s presentation, for example his statement that “there is no salvation apart from discipleship” (p. 434). This is a very full work and the judicious reader has much to gain from it.
• Oden, Thomas C. First and Second Timothy. Interpretation, a Biblical Commentary for Teaching and Preaching. Louisville, KY: John Knox Press, 1989. Defends the Pauline authorship as well as two Roman imprisonments for the apostle Paul. Provides the kind of comments on the text that preachers will find most helpful.
• Quinn, Jerome D., and William C. Wacker. The First and Second Letters to Timothy: A New Translation with Notes and Commentary. Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 2000. The inaugural volume of the new Eerdmans Critical Commentary series. Gives a fresh, readable translation and commentary that shows how the apostle Paul’s teaching—whether addressing the problems of church leadership, the roles of women in the church, the use of wealth, false doctrine, worship, and ethics--is relevant to church life today
• Ramsay, William Mitchell. Historical Commentary on the Pastoral Epistles. Edited by Mark Wilson. Grand Rapids: Kregel Publications, 1996. First published in The Expositor, 1909-1911. F. F. Bruce wrote of Ramsay’s studies: “My debt to the writings of Sir William Ramsay [is great]. I am repeatedly amazed by scholars of a later date who seem unaware of the contributions of particular value which he made to certain areas of New Testament study.” Crammed with valuable insights into the culture and geography of the first century A.D., this is a volume that pastors should turn to repeatedly.
• *Rowland, Alfred. Studies in First Timothy. Minneapolis: Klock & Klock Christian Publishers, 1985. "We may say it is a work of no ordinary value, and Christians will find it a rich feast. It is needless, of course, to say that [this study] is a work of a scholar; it is also the work of a wholehearted believer and its design was intended for the use of all who love the Lord in simplicity and truth" (The English Churchman).
• Stott, John Robert Walmsey. Guard the Truth: The Message of 1 Timothy and Titus. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 1996. Stott contends that the “true apostolic succession is a continuity not of order but of doctrine, namely the teaching of the apostles handed on from generation to generation.” In this companion volume to Guard the Gospel Stott places before his readers the fruit of his study of the NT and diligent labor. Each section is well outlined with numerous summaries in the paragraphs. Highly recommended.

CAMBRIDGE GREEK TESTAMENT - J H Bernard

D Edmond Hiebert - Greek text. The introductions provide a satisfactory study of the problems connected with the Pastorals from a conservative viewpoint. The exegetical notes on the text of the epistles are thorough, thoughtful, and scholarly.

Cyril Barber - This....1886 commentary from the Cambridge Greek Testament series readily interacts with critical issues raised by the publication of the NT texts of Tischendorf and Tregelles. Plummer then treats these letters in a most commendable way, providing some unique insights into the thought of the apostle and the nuances of the original text. (The Minister's Library, Volume 2)

James Rosscup writes "Though old, this is a good study from the Greek text which will be helpful in any more advanced study of the epistles. There are other works more highly recommended, however." (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Works)

H A IRONSIDE

John Cereghin - . Popular expositions. He urges the joy of soulwinning (14); stressses the enabling power of God (34); teaches unlimited redemption in Christ (55); emphasizes that only God can qualify men for the ministry (73); attacks Theosophy, Seventh Day Adventism, Christian Science (103); warns against the "social gospel" (111): holds that the Sermon on the Mount is for all believers (139); warns against evolution (155).

James Rosscup - He is staunchly evangelical, showing good broad surveys based on diligent study, practical turns, even choice illustrations. In prophecy he is premillennial dispensational....Many preachers have found that Ironside works, read along with heavier books on details of exegesis, help them see the sweep of the message and prime their spirits for practical relevance.

J J VAN OOSTERZEE - J P Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures

D Edmond Hiebert -  Oosterzee, J. J. Van, "The Pastoral Letters," J. P. Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures. Translated from the German.  (1863). The abundant material is in three sections: exegetical and critical; doctrinal and ethical; homiletical and practical. A full evangelical treatment by a Dutch Reformed minister and theologian of the past century.

James Rosscup - The treatments of books within this evangelical set vary in importance. Generally, one finds a wealth of detailed commentary, background, and some critical and exegetical notes. Often, however, there is much excess verbiage that does not help particularly. On the other hand, it usually has something to assist the expositor on problems and is a good general set for pastors and serious lay people though it is old.

BOB DEFFINBAUGH

• 1 Timothy 2:2 What Happened to Discipleship in the Epistles?

Conversion to Christ, in the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament,
was inconceivable without a commitment to follow Him in life.

Excerpt of this critically important truth in our day when some evangelical commentators say "disciples" are a "subcategory" of believers, and not every believer is a "full fledge" disciple. Read what this seasoned preacher says - What does our Lord mean by this command to ‘make disciples of every nation’? Looking back in the Gospels we are reminded that the term ‘disciples’ was used of those who were the followers of Jesus.²²² In the book of Acts, the term seems to be used as a synonym for ‘Christian’ or ‘believer’ (Acts 6:1,2; 9:1,26; 11:26, etc.). From this we should conclude that the command of the risen Lord was to carry out the task of leading men to be His followers, just as men had done during His earthly sojourn. Why use the term ‘make disciples’ then? Why not simply command that we evangelize the world? The reason is that Christianity is more than a decision to trust in Christ as Savior. It is not enough to invite men to believe in Christ as Savior. In the Gospels, our Lord invited men to follow Him, not just to believe on Him. Christianity is more than a moment-in-time conversion; it is the radical transformation or conversion which leads to a whole new way of life. It implies the forsaking of our former way of life, and our commitment to live as God requires, by His grace. In other words, discipleship is used because it compresses conversion and Christian living, salvation and sanctification, into one term. Conversion to Christ, in the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament, was inconceivable without a commitment to follow Him in life. That is why our Lord persistently challenged would-be followers to count the cost, as well as the rewards.

• 1 Timothy 2:3-4 Salvation by Knowing the Truth

OCTAVIUS WINSLOW

• 1 Timothy 2:5 There is One God - 1 Timothy 2:5

  The salvation of man is an embodiment of God Himself. The essence, the heart, the mind, the attributes, the character, the government of God, are all embarked, embodied, and exhibited in the salvation of man. It is a work so surpassingly stupendous, glorious, and divine, we can account for its vast and unique character, and its transcendent results, upon no other principle than its essential demonstration of Deity-"God manifest in the flesh." To mix, then, anything extraneous with this great and finished work, to add to it anything of human device, would seem a crime of deepest dye-a sin, the pardon of which might well extend beyond the provision of its mercy. God has, at every point, with a jealous regard for His own glory, exhibited and protected this great truth. Over the cross beneath which as a sinner I stand-inscribed upon the portal of the refuge into which as a sinner I flee-above the fountain within which as a sinner I bathe-upon every object on which as a sinner I believingly gaze, God has written one sentence-solemn, pregnant, and emphatic-"Jesus only!" 

  Jesus alone could stoop to our low estate. He only could stand between justice and the criminal-the Day's-man between God and us. He only had divinity enough, and merit enough, and holiness enough, and strength enough, and love enough to undertake and perfect our redemption. None other could embark in the mighty enterprise of saving lost man but Him. To no other hand but His did the Father from eternity commit His church-His peculiar treasure. To Jesus only could be entrusted the recovery and the keeping of this cabinet of precious jewels-jewels lost and scattered, and hidden in the fall, yet predestinated to a rescue and a glory great and endless as God's own being. Jesus only could bear our sin, and sustain our curse, endure our penalty, cancel our debt, and reconcile us unto God. In His bosom only could the elements of our hell find a flame of love sufficient to extinguish them; and by His merit only could the glories of our heaven stand before our eye palpable and revealed. Jesus must wholly save, or the sinner must forever perish. Listen to the language of Peter, uttered when "filled with the Holy Spirit," and addressed with burning zeal to the Christ-rejecting Sanhedrin: "This is the stone which was set at nothing of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved." Thus, in the great and momentous matter of our salvation, Jesus must be all.

C H SPURGEON
Devotional from Faith's Checkbook

1 Timothy 4:15

True Heart Energy - “Meditate upon these things, give thyself wholly tothem; that thy profiting may appear to all.”

THIS is, practically, a promise that, by diligent meditation and the giving up of our whole mind to our work for the Lord, we shall make a progress which all can see. Not by hasty reading, but by deep meditation, we profit by the Word of God. Not by doing a great deal of work in a slovenly manner, but by giving our best thought to what we attempt, we shall get real profit. “In all labor there is profit,” but not in fuss and hurry without true heart energy.

If we divide ourselves between God and mammon, or Christ and self, we shall make no progress. We must give ourselves wholly to holy things, or else we shall be poor traders in heavenly business; and at our stock-taking, no profit will be shown.

Am I a minister? Let me be a minister wholly, and not spend my energies upon secondary concerns. What have I to do with party politics, or vain amusements? Am I a Christian? Let me make my service of Jesus my occupation, my lifework, my one pursuit. We must be in-and-in with Jesus, and then out-and-out for Jesus, or else we shall make neither progress nor profit, and neither the church nor the world will feel that forceful influence which the Lord would have us exercise.
