Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(2Ti 2:4) “No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.”  What entanglements? Anything that puts you and your desires first before the Lord. Being faithful to the Lord is to be our first priority; not self, not family, not work, not health. He is to come first before all other things. Proof: Jesus said, (Mat 10:37) “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. (38)  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. (39)  He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.”
