Upon what did Paul base his charge to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4 verse 1?

The charge to Timothy is in verse 2. The charge was made "before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ. " Paul adds that Jesus will "judge the quick (those alive) and the dead" when He appears again at s second coming The question doesn't seem to be in regards to the charge for Timothy.

The answer to that is: A pastor should be faithful in preaching & leading the flock, whether it makes him popular or not The question seems to be asking about Jesus judging people. It has been suggested see John 12:44-50 for a partial answer. Yet that passage referred to Jesus' first coming, where He came to be the One who would save people from their sins.

Judgment Day was some time off. He still wants to save those lost in sin A better portion is in Matthew 25:31-46, where Jesus will sit on s throne in judgment of those who believed in m & those who didn't believe. While He spoke many times about the judgment to come, He sought to bring many to true belief."For the Son of man Jesus is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

" Luke 19:10 Question John 12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world On "I (Jesus) judge him not", Does Jesus judge anyone? Answer Jesus will indeed judge the world.It needs to be understood in the context of the words Jesus said about not judging that this was while He was on the earth. Here He did indeed come as the Savior.

Later He is to be involved in judgment.At a final uprising against Christ, the Apostle John says: "And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True Jesus, and in righteousness He doth judge and make war. " Revelation19:11 Jesus will preside on the Great White Throne Judgment: "And I saw a great White Throne, and from whose face the heaven and the earth fled away; and there was found no place for them. " Revelation 20:11 Answer As is often the case, the context makes it clear.

Paul's charge to Timothy related specifically to Timothy's ministry as a preacher or minister of the word of truth and life Both the judgment to come as well as the coming apostasy from truth, which had even begun in Paul's own day, made the charge which Paul gave have even greater urgency. As is shown later on, Paul believed his own end on this earth to be near and so he was passing on his own urgency to save souls and the importance of being a true and faithful minister to his 'junior' son in the faith and fellow minister The desire to save souls has no real urgency if there is no such thing as a judgment to come. Jesus mself had a lot to say about hell and its awful reality, even though s role while on earth was to save, specifically so people would not have to go there.

That He is also to be the judge who will decide with no error since He knows people's own thoughts and hearts, is another reason to be in awe of m and to submit to s loving provision for salvation before it is too late 2 Timothy 4:2-4 (King James Version) 2Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine 3For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
