A Study on the Second Epistle to Timothy by Jesse C Jones
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.
