Why Wasn't Paul Afraid?
How can Christians endure suffering for the gospel without shame? In this study of 2 Timothy 1:8–12, we explore Paul's call to Timothy to suffer for Christ by the power of God. Discover how the gospel reveals God's saving power, purpose, grace, victory over death, and the confidence believers can have in Christ. This video demonstrates how paraphrasing and discourse analysis uncover the rich logic of Paul's argument and deepen our understanding of the gospel. 🎓 Learn to Paraphrase with Biblearc: https://equip.biblearc.com/course/par... 📝 Sign up for our monthly Biblearc Field Notes email newsletter: https://resourcingeducation.m-pages.c... 🔔 Subscribe for more short devotionals that combine biblical theology, grammar, and deep Bible study insights.
