This week when we gathered, Mael D. taught us from 1 Timothy 2:1-7. Paul now introduces practical ways believers can be good stewards of the gospel. In 1 Tim 2:1-7 we see that God calls us to pray for all men and in particular for the ones that are in authority over us. These prayers are motivated by the gospel itself, for God "desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of truth," and have as a result "a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence."

Next week, Mael D. will continue the series in "Paul's Personal Epistles" when he teaches from 1 Timothy 2:8-15.
