1 Timothy 4:7-10

Passage Summary: Paul shifts the focus off of those who teach spiritual elitism through bodily restrictions, and warns against teachings which are based on human philosophy instead of God’s Word. He then uses the example of physical training to show what our emphasis should be on; growth in Godliness.

Sermon Summary: We must build up our capacity for Godliness through spiritual training so that we can serve God with the strenuous labor his glory deserves, and have greater strength and effectiveness in seeking and saving the lost.
