> PLEASE EXPLAIN 11 TIMOTHY 4:7
11 TIMOTHY 4:7 WAS PAUL'S LAST TESTIMONY. HE WAS CONFIDENT WHILE WAITING FOR DEATH.
IN REVIEWING HIS LIFE FOR GOD, PAUL KNOWS DEATH IS IMMINENT (V.6) AND DESCRIBES HIS CHRISTIAN LIFE IN THE FOLLOWING TERMS,
(1) He considers his Christian life as a "good fight," (Eph. 6:12), Jewish and pagan vices (3:1-5; Rom 1:21-32; Gal. 5:19-21), Judaism (Acts 14:19; 20:19; Gal. 5:1-6), antinomianism and immorality in the church (3:5; 4:3; Rom. 6; 1 Cor. 5:1; 6:9-10; 2 Cor. 12: 20-21 Rom. 16:17-18), the distortion of the gospel (Gal. 1:6-12), worldliness (Rom. 12:2), and sin (Rom. 6; 8:13; 1 Cor. 9:24-27).
(2) He has finished his course amidst trials, difficulties, and temptations, and has remaind faithful to his Lord and Savior throughout his life (2:12; Heb. 10:23; 11; 12:1-2).
(3) He has kept the faith in times of of severe testing, great discouragement, and much affiction, both when forsaken by friends and opposed by false teachers. He never compromised the original truth of the gospel (1:13-14; 2:2; 3:14-16; 1 Tim. 6:12).
