2 Timothy 4
How do you evangelize?
What is sound doctrine?
The core teachings of the Word. No add-ons. No supplements. No worldly ideas.
Discussion: What are things we tend to add on to doctrine? What doctrine do we replace with worldly ideas?
How do you fight the good fight?
1. Remain faithful
2. Glorify God through your actions
a. it can be many things, so long as your intent is to glorify God. The idea is that God has saved you and that you should now want to to make such salvation count. What is your purpose on Earth? Was it only to be saved? Your purpose is to spread the word and minister to those around you.
3. You can substitute the word "glory" for "fame." Make God famous.
4. The more you live the life God was you to, the more likely you will be persecuted.
Application:
Do you want to be remembered as the guy who liked football? Do you want to be remembered as the jerk?
Or do you want to be remembered as the one who served God wholeheartedly, proclaiming His Name in every nation?
