Last updated on: May 27, 2015 at 4:14 pm By Jim Erwin

Last updated on: May 18, 2015 at 8:51 pm By Jim Erwin

1 Timothy 5:1-25 Godly Honor As we continue through the book of 1 Timothy, we come to the place where we need to talk about how we should give honor to those in the church who have authority. The fact is that although we are all brothers and sisters in Christ, there is a system. We still give respect to those who are older than us. In today’s society, there is an increasing desire to not honor those who have... Read more
