Study/Discussion Questions

1. Which do you find easier to do, remind or warn?  Why is it important that we keep these in balance?
2. What do you think Paul is challenging Timothy to cleanse himself of?  How would this relate to you today?  What is God asking you to cleanse yourself of?
3. Why is it important for Christians to both flee and pursue?  Which of these do you find easier to do?  What does this command look like for you to obey today?
4. What kinds of “disputes” are worthwhile for Christians to engage in?  What kinds are not worthwhile?  Give examples.
5. What undesirable ‘youthful passions’ have you seen in yourself and others?  How does the Christian response to these contrast with the secular culture?
