2 Timothy 4:1–5: Preach the Word in Every Season

Preach the Word in Season and Out of Season

Paul charges Timothy to preach the word whether the moment is favorable or not, because Christ will judge the living and the dead and because hearers drift toward teaching that suits them. The charge rests on Christ's appearing, not on the preacher's results.

2 Timothy 4:1–5: Why Preaching the Word Is Commanded

Paul charges Timothy to preach the word before God and Christ the judge, and he explains why: hearers drift toward teachers who suit their desires. The passage grounds expository preaching in the word's authority and the preacher's accountability, not in promised outcomes.
