One of the
very famous scriptures on youthfulness is in First Timothy; “Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou
an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit,
in faith, in purity.” (4:12). This scripture has gained popularity because
(1) the greater percentage of every population consist of youths, and (2) the youth
are the most dissatisfied in society. Every youth with the strength of this
scripture craves liberty.
Paul the
Apostle told these things to Timothy, a youthful pastor. He admonished him to
fulfill his ministry amidst the influence of the elders.
