2:1-8 To Pray for Others

“I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone—” 1 TIMOTHY 2:1

Types of Prayer: Requests- means entreat; earnest plea or petition. Prayers- an offering to God. Intercession- interview for another’s cause Thanksgiving- express gratitude

“For all Men” or “for everyone” Context: 1 Timothy 1:18-20 Warning against those that reject the faith, false teachers, and those that blaspheme. Because of these threats “pray for all men”

“…for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” I TIMOTHY 2:2

Specific Charge Many political leaders that are influential in making decisions that will affect Christianity. Nero, a persecutor of the faith, was the Roman emperor at this time.

“Quiet and Peaceable Life” Paul is urging Timothy to: Pray for the salvation of all men Pray for all Leaders Remain faithful to truth, godliness, and reverence Not agitate or disrupt national, political matters

A Christian Ethics Question? Should the church get involve in political matters? 1.Abortion rights 2.Cloning 3.Homosexual Marriage 4.Environmental Issues

“This is good, and pleases God our Savior,” 1 TIMOTHY 2:3 (NIV) Paul makes this statement as an introduction for his next statement. God is by nature a saving God and source of salvation.

“ Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” 1 TIMOTHY 2:4 (KJV)

God’s will of Decree- His Eternal Purpose. God’s will of Desire- His hope for humanity. God commands his decree to fulfill his desire.

God commands his decree to fulfill His desire: (Cause and effect) A cause is something that makes something else happen. An effect is what happens as a result of the cause.

Personal life: Why am I go through this trial? Why am I suffering this lost? Why am I facing this test? Answer: God’s Decree (His plan)

What will be the result? God’s Desires to be fulfilled. What’s God’s desire? Salvation of men. We shouldn’t focus on the decree but on the desire.

“ This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will (desire), he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.” 1 JOHN 5:14, 15
