Purpose of Paul’s Command: Love

January 22, 2023 PM, 1 Timothy 1:4-7.

The apostle Paul exhorts Timothy to correct false doctrine in Ephesus so that the believers will exhibit genuine Christian love. This love arises from three character traits: a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith. Our focus in church ministry should be to cultivate those characteristics in each and every Christian person.

Scripture reading was in Romans 2.
