YouTube is one of the most powerful ways we share the gospel today. When you subscribe, you’re helping us reach people who may never step foot in a church or turn on a Christian broadcast. So don’t just watch, take a moment to subscribe and join us in sharing Jesus with the world. Bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and that is to come.
And at the beginning, he says, “Exercise yourself toward godliness.” What does that mean? I’ve always loved that verse because the word exercise in that verse comes from a Greek word. And here’s the Greek word. I’m going to pronounce it. Gimnado. It’s the word from which we get the word gymnasium.
And what Paul is saying to Timothy is just like you need to go to the gym and stay in shape physically, you need to go to the spiritual gym and stay in shape spiritually. Just like there are exercises that help you to become stronger physically, there are exercises that cause you to become stronger spiritually. With the noise of the holidays behind us, we look ahead to a new year and a new day.
