Timothy, M.Div.

Check out this advertisement for Westminster Seminary in California by Michael Horton. Play close attention at around the :45 mark....



Dr. Horton speaks about the importance of finding pastors who are well trained, who have...

studied to show themselves approved as handlers of the Word of God

...i.e., studied at a proper seminary. What Dr. Horton said in the above quote is believe a reference to 2 Timothy 2:15.

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. (2 Tim 2:15)

I wonder. Since Timothy is the one Paul is addressing, where did Timothy go to seminary so that he would be able to be approved to handle the Word of God?
