1063 1 Tim.1.18 - 2.7 Strategy to Counter False Teaching Pt.1

Paul’s strategy to counter false teaching in 1 Timothy 1:18–2:7 is structural and rooted in biblical theology. Timothy is commanded to guard the gospel as a soldier in spiritual warfare. False teaching leads to spiritual shipwreck. Prayer for all, especially authorities, supports peaceful gospel proclamation. The gospel is universal and exclusive: one God, one Mediator—Christ Jesus. Paul’s authority as apostle affirms Timothy’s role. Faithful teaching, not cultural accommodation, is essential to salvation and church integrity.
