1 Timothy chapter 2: The wonderful thing about our living God is that He wants everyone to know the truth and be saved. The truth is that there is one God and only one mediator between God and man, who is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.( Even though they are separate by their works, God the Father, Jesus Christ the son, and Holy Spirit the comforter are the same and one God).
And this Jesus was offered as a living sacrifice for the atonement of all our sins.Because he loved us so much Jesus died willingly on the cross, so that we can be saved from the wages of sin (which is death and hell)and be with Him everlastingly.
Apostle Paul exhorts everybody to pray with thanksgiving, supplication, and intercession for the welfare of all men, kings and people in high authority so that they will know God more and live a quiet, peaceful and godly life.And also that justice and peace prevail all over the world .We should all pray for this sincerely and without any doubt. This is well acceptable in the sight of our lord
Apostle Paul says woman’s beauty is revealed by their godliness and charity works and not by decorating herself with ornaments. He urges the women folks to continue in their faith steadfastly and lead a holy life. Since Eve was the first to be tempted easily by the devil to sin, he advises all women to be more careful and vigilant in their daily life.
Also Apostle Paul issues a strict decree that women should be silent and to be under the authority of men which I feel was applicable to the living lifestyle of the society during those times.
