THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL TO TIMOTHY - Chapter 4 - Verse 11

Verse 11. These things command and teach. As important doctrines, and as embracing the sum of the Christian system. It follows from this, that a minister of the gospel is solemnly bound to teach that there is a sense in which God is the Saviour of all men. He is just as much bound to teach this, as he is that only those will be saved who believe. It is a glorious truth -- and it is a thing for which a man should unceasingly give thanks to God that he may go and proclaim that he has provided salvation for all, and is willing that all should come and live.
