Christian Discipleship 2 Timothy 2

The book of James asks an important question: "Can that faith save?" Clearly James was stating that a saving faith exists apart from other professing faiths. Will our faith save?

The invitation from God for salvation in Jesus Christ is to come as you are. We do not clean ourselves up before we come to Christ. There is no deed that we can do to earn salvation. The Bible is clear: there is no other way, and there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved!

Yet after we commit our lives to God, Romans 8:15-16 and Romans 2:6-8 explain that we are not to remain as we are. Believing in God is not simply an acknowledgement of His existence, but a committed lifestyle to doing His will. Jesus Christ paid the price for our sins on the cross with His sacrificial blood with the expectation that we have a purpose to fulfill, which can only be accomplished through the power of the Holy Spirit working in and through us.

Christian Discipleship 2 Timothy 2:2 is a discourse written to:

• explain the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, emphasizing our call to walk by faith, to be holy as He is holy


• give Scriptural examples of the lifestyle we are to live, and disciple others to do likewise


• introduce Christian apologetics where the reader will learn the basics of why we believe various doctrines of the Christian faith through historical evidence and how to give a defense for our beliefs.

Whether in a group Bible study or in personal devotion, Christian Discipleship 2 Timothy 2:2 will challenge us to grow deeper in our understanding and commitment to the Christian faith while leading us into a steadfast relationship with our Creator.
