Bible Discussion Thread

Paul’s first letter to Timothy is very important to Christianity. Paul wrote instructions on church matters to his blessed student Timothy. Paul describes how only pure men can be pastoral representatives of God. Paul addresses important social issues that exist today. Paul decrees in the last parts of chapter 2 that females cannot “lord” faith over males. Females should not take offense to Paul’s truth, which comes from the Holy Spirit. Many Christian denominations ordain female priests, but Paul explains how females should hold to quiet-loving lives ( 1 Timothy 2:13). The writing also speaks of homosexuals ( 1 Timothy 1:10-11). Homosexuality is a tool that brings accusation to the Christian church. Innocent-orphan children are adopted into homosexual homes. Children connected to homosexual life styles suffer exposure to severe pornographic acts and harassment because of the lifestyle their adoptive/birth parents live. While homosexuals always play the civil rights card, all competent people know right from wrong. As people who love Christ, let us peacefully help one another from sinning. Challenges exist but never give up kindness, faith, and love. Paul’s first letter to Timothy is an outstanding biblical writing. Written with love, Paul shows his gift of God’s divine Holy Spirit though his skill of calligraphy.
