The idea of the “shipwrecked” faith of Hymenaeus and Alexander in 1 Timothy 1:19 is that they had veered off course, away from good teaching, and drifted into the dangerous rocks of false teaching. They had wrecked their faith. Paul clearly links faith with a good conscience (and the righteous behavior that comes with good conscience) in 1 Timothy 1:5 and 19. Interestingly, the word translated “rejected” in verse 19 is a nautical term meaning “thrown overboard.” Hymenaeus and Alexander had tossed out the good conscience that comes with proper belief-in other words, they loved sin. The “ship” of their faith, not having the ballast it needed, went out of control and wrecked. So those who accept false teachings and ignore their conscience will suffer spiritual damage, like a ship that hits the rocks and is broken up.
Good morning blessings! I received my Holman Bible dictionary yesterday. It is amazing, I used it this morning before delving into 1 Timothy. Checked out maps, read introduction and so much more. This will be such an asset to my study of the Word, thank you not only for your hard work in brining the study and Word of God, but also for sharing such resources. May God continue to bless and keep you, may His face shine upon you and give you peace. ❤
Good Day Everyone! Kaela hope you bounce back real soon Paul after he was released from prison in Rome , travelled to Ephesus to place Timothy in ministry at that church . Paul then went on to Macedonia where he heard about Timothy’s work & was promoted to write Timothy . Timothy & Paul visited Ephesus in ACTS 19 on Paul’s 3 rd missionary journey . My NIV student Bible says that Paul wrote to Timothy near the end of his life and Timothy had gained the complete trust , it goes on to say that in Philippians 2:20-22 where Paul referred to him a son that has served him well . In his letter Paul advises his understudy on church procedures , false doctrines, loose women , leadership standards & policies .
Thank you. I truly am trying to share the realness of what my own time with God is often like... and yep - often right there while the camera is rolling the Holy Spirit will nudge me about something in a different way so it just happens 🙏🏻
Happy Friday 🕊️ TPT says 1Timothy 1:13 Mercy kissed me, even though I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor of believers, and a scorner of what turned out to be true. I was ignorant and didn’t know what I was doing. V.14 I was flooded with such incredible grace, like a river, overflowing its banks, until I was full of faith and love for Jesus, the Anointed one! Amazing 📖 Grace, Mercy and Peace.🕊️
Good morning beautiful lady. I forgot to post yesterday but im always here 🙏🤗 i use the commentary i listened to it today. He said he adds mercy to the introduction if the pastoral letters.
Patience is crucial in the Christian faith because it demonstrates our trust in God's sovereignty and His timing. It helps us to understand that God's plan for our lives is perfect, and we should trust in His timing, even when we do not understand it.
In that verse, the apostle Paul wrote, “Fight the good faith of faith….” According to this verse, the path of faith often requires a fight to see it through to completion. The word “fight” is the Greek word agonidzo, which refers to a struggle, a fight, great exertion, or effort.
It’s interesting that you noticed that Paul added mercy to his introductory greeting. I noticed he used the word mercy a couple of times between verses 12-17. Grace is receiving what we don’t deserve, and mercy is not getting what we do deserve. For some reason, Paul was really struck by God’s mercy at that moment. Perhaps because he was talking about the law earlier, and the law has punishments for those who break it. He knew he deserved punishment, but God showed him mercy because he “acted in ignorance and unbelief.“
Hi dear new living bible says for 1st Timothy 1 vers 13 even though I used to scoff at the name of Christ I hunted down his people harming them in every way I could. But God had mercy on me because I didn't know what I was doing for I didn't know Christ at that time. Vers. 14 oh how kind our Lord was, for he showed me how to trust him and become full of the love of Christ Jesus.
There is one other time when Paul had delivered a person to Satan: a man who professed to believe in Jesus but simultaneously living an immoral lifestyle was delivered “over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 5:5). Note that the reason Paul metes out such a harsh apostolic judgment is the benefit of all those involved. The church would be purified, and the erring individuals would be brought to repentance. The goal for the man in Corinth was that he would submit to God and be saved from spiritual ruin. The goal for Hymenaeus and Alexander was that they “be taught not to blaspheme” (1 Timothy 1:20).
I'm reading from the New Living Translation. I have no judgment when it comes to translations and actually have an entire video right here if you need help finding the best one for you: ua-cam.com/video/k4MQcfnCFek/v-deo.htmlsi=sKIT5e60JnRR5zIo And, here's a direct link to the actual Bible I read daily: amzn.to/49zVBe6 I hope this helps.

I just love so much how you share from your study Bible so that others can glean from it too ❤️
I love how you humble yourself to examine yourself and teach yourself while teaching others.

I LOVE THAT! How great is His mercy! And just evidence that Jesus Christ died for everyone, for the sins of the world. Wow! 🙌🏼
Good morning everyone!
V16in kjv "...for a pattern to them which should here after believe..." I regularly see what God does in the Bible is what He has also done for me.
I love that! Recognizing Him in your day - so powerful!🙌🏼

Good afternoon kaela❤❤
I know this is days after you went through this. I have The women of faith New International Bible says the same
I love that!
Interesting information I thought
V 20 Hymenaeus and Alexander whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme. NKJV
They walked according to the flesh and not the Spirit (see Romans 8:5-9), claiming the name of Christ while behaving like unbelievers
