The Bible Tells Me So

The Lord's Day Morning May 22, 2005 II Timothy 3:16-17 “The Bible Tells Me So” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to II Timothy, chapter three. Last Lord's Day, those of you who are here at the 8:30 service got one point of a three-point sermon, and we're going to continue in that same passage today. We’re going to begin in verse 14, though the focus of our study is going to be on verses 16 and 17. In this glorious section of II Timothy 3, beginning in verse 10 and running to the end of the chapter, the Apostle Paul is exhorting Timothy to follow his example, and he's appreciating Timothy. He's encouraging Timothy in the fact that Timothy has, to a great extent, followed his example. Now, it would be very easy…

175 and Counting: The Bible Tell Me So

The Lord's Day Morning March 11, 2012 “175 and Counting: The Bible Tells Me So” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 The Reverend Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to 1 Timothy, sorry, 2 Timothy chapter 3 verses 16 and 17. For the last few weeks we've been in a series called “175 and Counting” and we've tackled a few topics of crucial interest and importance to us as a congregation and to the Christian Church in general. We've addressed the issue of discipleship that being a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ is more than about praying a prayer or making a decision or claiming to be a follower of Christ. It's actually hearing and doing what the Lord calls us to be and do in the Christian life. That's what a Christian disciple is…

Biblical Priorities for the Life of the Church (2)…

The Lord's Day Morning November 12, 2006 II Timothy 4:1-4 Biblical Priorities for the Life of our Church (2) How in the World does the Church Grow? Biblical Preaching Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III Amen. If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to II Timothy 4. A couple of weeks ago we began a new series on biblical priorities for our life as a congregation of Christians; that is, we wanted to look to the Bible to see what the Bible said about how we are to order our lives together — what our priorities ought to be as we live and work together as fellow Christians in this local congregation in obedience to God's word. We started that series off by looking at something of the context in which the church finds itself today. We asked the question “Where in the world is…

Preach the Word

The Lord's Day Morning May 29, 2005 II Timothy 4:1-4“Preach the Word” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to II Timothy, chapter four. Last week we were in II Timothy 3, and looking especially at those glorious verses in which the Apostle Paul describes the nature, the character of Scripture as divinely inspired, as God-breathed, as profitable for reproof and correction, and training in righteousness; as sufficient for equipping us for the…

Finishing the Race

The Lord's Day Morning June 5, 2005 II Timothy 4:5-8 “Finishing the Race” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to II Timothy, chapter four. We’re coming today towards the end of our study of the pastoral letters and of II Timothy. Next Lord's Day, God willing, Derek Thomas will be taking us through II Timothy 4:9-22, a passage in which Paul is relating personal greetings and expressing personal concerns. At first glance it can look…

How Faithfulness Looks at the End

If you have your Bibles, I’d invite you to turn with me to 2 Timothy chapter 4. We’re going to look at Paul’s last written words to Timothy. Now these aren’t Paul’s last words to Timothy because in this very passage we learn that Timothy is going to see Paul again. But this is the last letter of Paul to his young mentee, Timothy, a man that he views as a son in the Lord and who looks us to him as a father in the faith. And in these words, we do find, as Denny Terry reminded us…
