2 Timothy


Apparently, Paul is yet again imprisoned in Rome and this second letter to his beloved Timothy is essentially his last words. Paul was feeling lonely and abandoned and likely knew his end was at hand. But, he looks past his own circumstances and encourages Timothy.

Impressions: Paul is concerned for both the church and for Timothy, that they remain morally and doctrinally pure. There are many issues and false teachers that tug at the searching heart and we must remain true to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Christain does that by being grounded in the knowledge of God's word and firm in our refusal to accept anything that is unbiblical.
