Do you know what reading in context is?
Timothy 4 starts out condemning putting stipulations on believers.
That's the context.
Believers.
He's not preaching to convert an unbeliever, he's confirming that believing is the only stipulation.
It's not the first time he's ever done it either.....
ROMANS 14
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
COLOSSIANS 2
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
JOHN 6
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
Paul's assertion that God is the saviour of all people obviously transcends context.
Not even gonna look at yer link.
Perhaps we need not continue debating then.
