2nd Timothy – The Good Soldier of Jesus Christ – 2011 – Northern Virginia
The epistle of Second Timothy is considered to be one of Paul’s most personal letters. He is writing during his second and final imprisonment to his trusted and beloved son in the faith. Paul knows his execution is imminent. His concern is not for himself, but for Timothy, who must continue in the spiritual battle. His theme, “the good soldier of Jesus Christ” follows that of first Timothy, “Fight the good fight” (1Ti 1:18; 1Ti 6:12).

What Ezekiel saw in his vision effected his life (Eze 1:26-28) - it transformed him. God's glory is shown in the likeness of light. The symbols have significance to priests (Ezekiel was trained to be one). God's glory is blinding light, but veiled in human flesh (Luk 2:8-14). The first manifestation of God's Glory in Jesus Christ(Psa 40:6-8, Heb 10:5-9). Second statement from Jesus re-emphasizes His first - that He must do His will (Luk 2:49). The plan of God is Christ the focus of history. Our focus of life is everything - "if our eye is single" (Mat 6:21-33, 2Co 11:3)
