Default Re: in order

Thanks TDOL,
One more please.
What do you think of these:

1-In order him to get out of the way, I pushed him violently.
2-I pushed him violently in order for him to get out of the way.
3-I pushed him violently for him to get out of the way.
4-I pushed him violently to get out of the way.

I think 3 is not only unnatural but downright wrong. I don't know about the other ones.
