1 Timothy 5 · Grade 3

Honor and Help

Name Date

Read the Story

Paul taught Timothy how to treat people in the church. He should speak kindly to an older man, as to a father. He should treat younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, in purity.

Paul said to honor widows, women whose husbands had died. If a widow has children or grandchildren, they should take care of her first. That is the right way to show love to family. A widow who is all alone hopes in God and prays night and day. The church should help her.

Paul also said leaders who teach well should be honored. Timothy should be fair and not take sides. He should keep himself pure. Paul said good works cannot stay hidden.
