Bible Study

Don’t just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: 1 Timothy 4:6–16; Matthew 5:13–16.

  • Wholly embracing the faith
  • Fully thinking the faith
  • Faithfully living the faith
    1. What’s the difference between the “spiritual bodybuilders” of 1 Tim. 4:1–5 and the godly spiritual athlete of 1 Tim. 4:6–16?
    2. What’s the contemporary counterpart of the Greco-Roman gym? The epicenter of modern cultural life?
    3. Which is easier for you to forget — God’s plan for this present world (the now), or His plan for the life to come (the not yet)?
    4. Pray through the three questions Sam asked. Through which might the Holy Spirit be speaking to you?
      • Michael Rhodes, Just Discipleship: Biblical Justice in an Unjust World
      • Frank Daubner, “Gymnasia: Aspects of a Greek Institution in the Hellenistic and Roman Near East”
      • Raffaele Cribbiore, Gymnastics of the Mind: Greek Education in Hellenistic and Roman Egypt
