Transcript

Alright, thank you very much. And hello again, radio friends. How in the world are you? Doing alright today? I trust so, bless your heart. This is your good friend, Bob Cook, and I’m glad to be back with you, looking at the Word of God. We’re walking around in the Book of First Timothy and we’ve, now, come into chapter 5. We summarized, the last time we got together, Paul’s admonition to Timothy about how to treat his elders. “Don’t jump on ’em, but love them. Comfort them. Reward them. Don’t listen to criticism about them. But when sin shows up, jump on it with both feet.” [chuckle] That’s a Cook version of the first 20 verses of chapter 5, so far as it applies to elders.

Now, he says in verse 21, “I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality. Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins. Keep thyself pure.” Then we come to a verse about, which people have argued a good deal, “Drink no longer water only, but use a little wine for thy stomach’s sake and thine often infirmities.”

This is pretty serious stuff. He says, “I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels.” That phrase shows up in second Timothy as well. “I charge thee, therefore, before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead at His appearing, and His Kingdom preach the Word.” The charge that Paul gives to this young preacher, means that these are things that are very, very serious and that he must remember. He must remember to preach the Word. He must remember to be impartial and fair. He must remember the proper spiritual procedure, “Lay hands suddenly on no man.” We’ll get at that, proper spiritual procedure. “He must take care to keep his own life clean, and above reproach, and he must take care of his body.” These are the things that Paul says are important. Interesting, isn’t it?
