Get the app1 & 2 Timothy ಮಾದರಿ
It all comes down to love: love for God and love for others. When we allow our words to focus more on arguing and trivial, divisive controversies instead of helping people fall in love with Jesus, we know we have a problem. This is what was happening with the false teachers in Timothy's day. They were leading people away from Jesus instead of to Jesus. Instead of teaching people how to know God and love Him with pure hearts, good consciences, and sincere faiths, these false teachers brought up controversies that were causing division, hypocrisy, and ultimately leading people away from God.
Timothy said it best, "The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith..." Make that your goal today. Love others with all your heart. And if you need to, use words.
Dear Lord,
Use me today for your glory. Help others see you in me. Give me your supernatural love for those you have placed in my life. Help me to love them with a pure heart, good conscience, and a sincere faith. Use my life to point others to You. Amen.

About this Plan
After an encounter with Jesus, Paul was radically changed. This change led him to plant churches, go on missions, and write much of the New Testament. Two of the books he penned were letters written to a young man named Timothy. Paul wrote regarding church leadership and ministry perseverance that are powerful reminders to us today as we seek to stand firm with faith in an ungodly world.
