This is the final letter from Paul’s pen. He is writing to his young son in the faith, Timothy. Paul has been arrested again and knows that the time of his departure has come. Everything has changed in the Roman Empire. Where once he could speak freely of the gospel, he has now been arrested as a criminal. The infamous Emperor Nero has systematically begun to arrest Christians; many were killed, many were tortured.
Paul writes to Timothy to be bold in his faith. “Don’t be ashamed of the gospel and don’t be ashamed of me,” Paul wrote, “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind.”
The tide is also turning today. For many years the church has enjoyed tremendous freedom. I’m not sure that we’ve taken full advantage of the opportunity, but this much is certain, the tide is turning against us. The days are getting more dangerous as we speak. There should be a sense of urgency in our faith as well.
What do you say when you know you don’t have much time left? Everything takes on a greater sense of priority everything changes in perspective.
In these verses Paul gets very personal with Timothy. He wants him to think about his own life and the value and treasure of what has been entrusted to him. As an illustration, he uses the various vessels in a house. There are cups, vases, bowls, serving dishes, decorative pieces, bins for trash, and not too long ago, people had spittoons and buckets for food waste. We had one and affectionately called it our slop bucket. And don’t forget the porcelain vessel also known as a toilet.
Some are vessels of honor and others are vessels of dishonor. In a similar way, we should also consider the value and treasure that God is given us and decide that we want our lives to be vessels of honor. What is the value of what God has given you? We are called to live as vessels of honor unto God.
