About this listen

Main Text: 2 Timothy 4:1–5 (ESV) 1 I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5 As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

Preaching Point: As a church and as individual believers, we must continually and actively look to teach others to be like Christ.

Teaching Points:

  1. Take Your Charge to Teach Seriously (vv. 1-2)
  2. Take the Threats to Sound Teaching Seriously (vv. 3-4)
  3. Take the Lifestyle of Teaching Seriously (vv. 5)
