Timothy, Titus and Philemon

Description

The four letters written to individuals by the Apostle Paul are discussed in this volume. Dr. Ironside presents an exposition of the three pastoral epistles to Timothy and Titus, and the strictly personal one to Philemon, in his usual clear-thinking, plain-speaking manner. Stating the outstanding theme of the two epistles to Timothy as being "the truth according to godliness," and the theme of the letter to Titus as being "godliness according to truth," he proceeds to explain, section by section, the meaning of the messages. Apt and helpful illustrations, with occasional reference to the Greek, throw light on four very important and intensely practical portions of the New Testament. The material on the letters to Timothy originated as addresses to the congregations of the Moody Memorial Church, Chicago and comprises the bulk of the book. The discussion of Titus is the substance of three lectures reprinted and revised from Moody Monthly. The book concludes with a twelve-page exposition of Philemon. Dr. Ironside has the knack of producing books which can be read with ease by the young Christian, yet which, at the same time, prove helpful, informing, and stimulating to the more mature believer. This volume is no exception. -- Jacket flap.
