Melbourne turn
to Christ.

6. IS NED KELLY IN HEAVEN?
Two major themes –
1. Is there anyone outside the
bounds of God’s Love &
Grace? ( 1 Timothy 1:15)
2. God is making ordinary
people into being
extraordinary !
(2 Timothy 1:6-7)

7. “Lord, let my hand
become the Hands
of Jesus…. “

8. ORDINARY
CALLED TO BE
EXTRAORDINARY
2 Timothy 1:1-7
Dr John Singletom
God is calling ordinary Christians to
do extraordinary things to extend
His Kingdom

9. Ordinary Called to be Extraordinary
2 Timothy 1:1-7
New International Version (NIV)
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, in keeping with the promise of
life that is in Christ Jesus,
2 To Timothy, my dear son:
Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Thanksgiving
3 I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night
and day I constantly remember you in my prayers. 4 Recalling your tears, I long to
see you, so that I may be filled with joy. 5 I am reminded of your sincere faith, which
first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am
persuaded, now lives in you also.
Appeal for Loyalty to Paul and the Gospel
6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of
God, which is in you through the laying on of my
hands. 7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us
timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

10. Ordinary Called to be Extraordinary
1. Saved by Grace
2 Timothy 1:1-5
Timothy had a Christian mother &
grandmother, but this did not make
him a Christian.
Is anyone outside God’s
amazing Grace?
Paul’s testimony..1 Timothy 1:14-15
“I was the worst or chief of sinners.
God’s Grace saved me.”

11. Ordinary Called to be Extraordinary
2. Ignite God’s Gifting
verse 6
Timothy was prophesied over by
Paul (1 Timothy 4:14).
He was a sickly young man
(1 Timothy 5:23);
naturally timid ( 1 Corinthians 16:10)
& suffered much persecution in
seeking to serve God.

12. Ordinary Called to be Extraordinary
3. Be Empowered by God..
Verse 7
A) a spirit of power…
(dunamis = dynamite) A fresh/daily
anointing & empowering of Holy
Spirit…c/f Ephesians 5:18
B) Love – (agape) showing Jesus’
love
C) Self discipline – having a sound
mind, not being governed by fear.

13. Ordinary Called to be Extraordinary
Ask God today, for a
special touch of His
Agape Love – to love the
unlovely
