What Does 1 Timothy 4:11 Mean?
With a short, firm sentence Paul tells Timothy to command and teach the truths he has laid out. The instruction is direct.
Teaching the church is not optional or timid work. Timothy is to deliver these truths with authority, as one entrusted to guard and pass on the message. The plainness of the command matches the importance of the task.
