1 Timothy 4:1-5 - Receiving God's Grace in Creation

This week, we return to 1 Timothy where Paul, at the end of chapter 3, has declared that the church is the pillar and buttress of the truth, and that we confess the mystery of godliness when we speak of the work of Christ.

False teaching, however, cleverly presents itself in a spirituality that sees holiness as attained by abstinence, where the gospel calls us to engage creation through thankfully receiving God’s gifts.
