Give Thyself Wholly
For Maximum Profit
Text: 1Timothy 4:13-16

 Objective:   that we may give all of ourselves, and all we have to God and His work
  - to get the young people to a good start in serving the Lord early
 Intro: 
  - Read the chapter - spc. vv. 13-16  
  - Who wants to be rich?   more profit, more riches 
  - Spiritually must be the focus - v. 8 
  - wholly - adv. To a complete degree or to the full or entire extent 
   - all, altogether, completely, entirely, totally 
  - give - "Transfer possession of something concrete or abstract to somebody" 

 What and How should we give ourselves (to) 
 1. Into the Ministry - v.6 - 'good minister'  
  - that ministry includes warning others of false prophets - vv. 1-5 
  - being 'nourished' will greatly help 
 2. Into Godliness - vv.7 - 8 - 'prioritize over other things' 
  - profit promised - life on earth and on heaven 
 3. To the Living God - the Lord - v. 10 - 'trust in Him' 
  - do this even we have to work hard (labour) and suffer reproach as a result 
 4. To the Gifts of God - v. 14 - 'perfect, hone, improve' 
  - through the Word of God - read, teach, hear, communicate, meditate, taking    heed, preserve testimony and integrity of the doctrine received from the Lord. 
  - continue, non-stop
 5. To the Word of God - vv. 13, 16 - doctrine - 'continue learning'

Message/conclusion:  

 The Lord has the best plans for us.
 Let us therefore give ourselves to Him and His work. 
 And for maximum profit, let us give all and early!
