Hold, Follow, Guard: The Stewardship of Truth

Go to a jewelry store and you’ll notice the most valuable items well-displayed, yet well-secured. Your life as a Christian is like that display case. You’ve deposited all of yourself in Christ for safe keeping. And He has graciously chosen to display His likeness in your life. Do you ever think of your life as a display case for the gospel, and the life that springs from its power? “That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.” 2 Timothy 1:14 (NKJV) How do we live in such a way that the gospel is displayed, and shown to be precious? Paul encourages Timothy to guard the gospel by holding fast to the truth – not merely knowing sound doctrine, but living it out by faith. In this sermon, we’ll return to our study in 2 Timothy with “Hold, follow, guard: The stewardship of truth.”
