The Holy Spirit and the human soul


1 Timothy 1:1-11
(1) Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
(2) Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
(3) As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
(4) Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
(5) Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
(6) From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
(7) Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
(8) But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
(9) Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
(10) For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
(11) According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
1 Peter 4:8
(8) And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

What is charity?  LOVE with a PURE MOTIVE.  UNSELFISH LOVE

The happiest people on the earth are those that have been purged of selfishness, who live as Apostle Paul told Timothy:

1 Timothy 1:6
The end of the commandment (purpose for being preached to, for being discipled)
1. CHARITY OUT OF PURE HEART
2. GOOD CONSCIENCE (ready to meet the LORD)
3. FAITH UNFEIGNED - (no limits to what you BELIEVE)

That is a powerful people - they that do KNOW their GOD shall BE STRONG!
