Train yourself to be godly 1 Timothy 4:1-8

Who is a person you know who has abandoned their faith in Christ What were the factors?

V1 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons

2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.

3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. 4 For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5 because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.

False teachers then and now deny the goodness of God and distort the Word of God

V6 If you point these things out to the brothers and sisters, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.

V 7 Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. 8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

‘The focus is "train" …it implies a consistent, disciplined approach to life when it comes to godly living. There is a diligence required, commitment, focus, determination, pursuit of the things of God and His kingdom. Not haphazard...you have a PLAN!’

Why do I have to TRAIN myself to be godly?

Disciplined training is needed because we are in the process of BEING TRANSFORMED by the renewing of our minds....the training gives God the opportunities He needs to transform us.

Examples of what it may look like to train yourself.

Consider our Kingdom Life Tree. What next step can you take to ‘train yourself to be godly’? What stops you training to be godly?

The goal of training is ‘to be godly’, to be like Jesus

1 Thessalonians 2:19,20 For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you? 20 Indeed, you are our glory and joy
