How Was Timothy Trained for the Ministry? In the Fulness of Time, God Prepared the World for the Gospel. The Gospel Gives us the Only Way to Heaven. After Sowing the Seed, Paul and his Companions Returned to Choose Leaders for the Church. The New Testament Knows Nothing of One Person in Charge: Every Congregation Should Have Bishops and Elders Leading it. Why Did the Reformed and Presbyterian Churches Lose the Frontier? How Did the First Century Church Train People for the Gospel Ministry? What Is an Elder? How Did they Find Pastors? All Elders Are Bishops, and all Bishops Are Elders. The Beginning of Hope, Help, and Wisdom Is to Confess, "I Don't Know what to Do."

After working my way through this message I believe I need to state the following. "I was wrong about John Mark" is true in 2 Timothy 4:11, but it is ALSO true that John Mark matured. Spurring God's people is a job for pastors, but it is directed to everyone in Hebrews 10:24-25. Being grieved and angry inside does not mean that Paul lost his temper in Acts 17:16. The Outline: Anger Leads to Division. Missionary Work Is Difficult. This Division Led to Multiplication. Godly People Change Their Opinions of Others. We Need to Use our Spurs. Worshipping with the Lord's People Is Essential. We Should Be Angry at Satan's Deception of Pagans. The Holy Spirit Directs Where the Gospel Will Find Fertile Soil. In the New Testament, Every Time Someone Becomes a Believer and it Is Mentioned he Has a Family, the Whole Family Is Baptized. Paul Met a Python. Paul Lost His Temper, but God Used it for Salvation. We Are Living in Perilous Times. If Your All Is on the Altar, you Will Have Peace and Joy.
