What does the Bible say about the role of a man of God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes a man of God as one who follows righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness.

In 1 Timothy 6:11-12, Paul urges Timothy to flee worldly pursuits and instead pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness. Calling Timothy a 'man of God' connects him to the Old Testament prophets, tasked with revealing God's will. This title suggests a continuity between the Old and New Testaments, emphasizing that the same gospel of substitutionary atonement has always been at the heart of God's plan for salvation.
