Magner’s Commissioning Service
Text: 1 Timothy 1
Theme: Commissioned to spread the Gospel throughout the world.
Paul is speaking of spiritual business
Paul is speaking of serious business
Paul is looking at the needs of the current generation and the generation to come
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
I. Commanded by God (v. 1)
Other key passages: 2 Timothy 2:4; 1 Cor 1:1; Romans 1:1
An example of this is found in Acts 13:1-4
II. Charged by the Church (v. 18)
This is where the church acknowledges the work of God in someone’s life
This is where the church establishes its connection with the work of God upon someone’s life
Back to the example in Acts 13:3, 4
