Unashamed of the Gospel!

2 Timothy 1:6-12

Purpose: to rekindle an unashamed spirit, fueled by the gospel of Jesus Christ

1. Rekindling an Unashamed Gospel Spirit (2 Tim 1:6-8)

          - God grants us a spirit of power, love, and discipline   
              to live unashamed for Christ (v. 7)

          - Timothy, do not be ashamed of the testimony of
              Jesus Christ or Paul (v. 8)

          - Paul, not ashamed of suffering for Jesus Christ (v. 12)

          - Onesiphorus, often refreshed Paul, unashamed of
              Paul’s chains (v. 16)

          - Keep proclaiming the gospel, and supporting those
              who do, regardless of the cost

2. Fueled by Gospel Power (2 Tim 1:9-10)

          God’s eternal plan now revealed in Christ who died

             and rose again to save sinners

3. Paul’s Example (2 Tim 1:11-12)

          Suffering for the Gospel

          Trusting a Faithful God
