In his second epistle to Timothy, Paul addresses Timothy as his dearly beloved son, and wishes him grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. He prays for Timothy both night and day; greatly desiring to see him before he is put to death. He is thankful for the faith that Timothy demonstrates, which he says was in his mother Eunice, and his grandmother Lois. He then reminds him of the gift of God, which was imparted when he laid hands on him and prayed. In this epistle, Paul addresses guidance for Timothy, wickedness in the last days, and with some final instructions says goodbye.

Paul called Timothy his “true son in the faith.” He took Timothy as one of his companions on the third missionary journey and the most affectionate relations between them were sustained to the end of the apostle’s life. His last epistle was to this disciple. Timothy was stationed at Ephesus where heretical teachers carried on their destructive work. In this epistle the apostle gives this young pastor just the instruction needed to meet the needs of the situation in Ephesus. He does not discuss doctrines, but gives direction for the training and governing of the church.

This is one of the four “Prison Epistles,” the other three are Ephesians, Colossians, and Philemon. It was in Philippi that the gospel was first preached in Europe in response to a vision Paul had from a man of Macedonia who implored, ”Come over to Macedonia and help us” (Acts 16:9). Interpreting this plea as a summons from God, Paul and his party sailed for Neapolis, the port of Philippi. Philippi, the chief city in that part of Macedonia, was a Roman colony at that time (Acts 16:12). It had no synagogue so on the sabbath Paul and his party went out of the city to a riverside where there was a place of prayer. Through the kindness of Lydia, a devout convert of Paul, they were cared for. Chapters include: Thankfulness and Prayer, Be Like Christ, Paul Gives Up Everything for Christ, and Closing Exhortations.

While Paul proceeded to Corinth, he sent Timothy to ascertain the condition in this new church. Timothy joined Paul in Corinth and reported the steadfastness of the faith of these believers, but that they were disturbed, and were laboring under mistaken ideas relative to the Second Coming of Christ. They were under the impression that this great event was soon to occur and raised the question, what about those who had died having a part in His glorious coming and kingdom? To set their at minds at rest on this point Ploniaaul wrote this first letter. It was the first of thirteen epistles written in 52 or 53 AD, or about eighteen years after his conversion. It was written at Corinth where Paul spent eighteen months.

A Study on the Second Epistle to the Corinthians by Jesse C Jones

Paul encourages the Corinthians and all God’s people throughout Achaia, which was originally part of the Peloponnesus. The Romans applied the name to all Greece and Macedonia in 146 BC, and Augustus divided the whole into two provinces—Macedonia in the north and Achaia in the south, with Corinth as its capital. Grace be to you and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our savior, who encourages us in all our tribulations, who comforts us in all our trials so that we can comfort others in their trials. So if we are afflicted it is for your encouragement and deliverance, and if we are encouraged that should encourage you when you have to endure sufferings like those we are experiencing. For we want you to know about the trials we have experienced in the province of Asia. Things were so bad that in our hearts we felt that we were under a sentence of death. However, this was to get us to rely on God, and not ourselves. He rescued us from deadly peril, and the One in whom we have placed our hope will continue to rescue us. You must add your help by praying for us; for the more people that are praying, the more people there will be to give thanks when the prayer is answered. In confidence I had planned to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and visit again on the way back, but to spare you I didn’t come to Corinth at that time in order not to come in a rebuking spirit, as I should have had to come to you, if I had come then. Not that we have Lordship over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for by faith you stand.

Paul addresses his letter to those at Corinth that are sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be saints, along with all the others who call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Paul draws a line here between those in the church at Corinth that are (or are being) sanctified and called to be saints, from those that believe in Jesus Christ our Lord, but have not yet entered into sanctification. He seems to emphasize the fact that all the above, both sanctified and not yet sanctified, are followers of the same Lord. He goes on to beseech them to speak in unity, and be perfectly joined together, of a common mind and purpose, with no divisions among them.
