This much debated passage of 1 Timothy 2:1-8 has been discussed, commented upon, taught, as well as, misused, proof texted, and abused. As we take our time working through the text, we will find that the context reveals much that was not so easily understood from the surface reading; however, we want to keep the Primary Point of the Passage in focus. Paul calls for Timothy, the church's leader, to pray for the lost, in particular, those unbelievers in authority over them. |
