Sermon Text: 1 Timothy 1

Outline:

  1. Vain Discussion
  2. Very Depraved
  3. Amazing Grace

Reflection Questions:

  1. What kind of vain discussions have you been in lately (even if they were confined to your own mind theater)? Why is “being right” so, so, so important to you?
  2. Paul says, “The law is good, IF you use it for its intended purpose – understanding that the law is NOT for “good people”, but for lawless, disobedient, people.” How do YOU USE the law? (e.g. to confirm that you’re “good”, or to expose the hidden evils of your heart [see Romans 7:13-25]).
  3. In your opinion, what is the most trustworthy – deserving of full acceptance – statement about God, and about you?
