For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospelnot with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

For this reason I have sent to you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, and he will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, just as I teach everywhere in every church.

And when I arrive, I will send those whom you approve with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem.

So let no one despise him. Send him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca greet you warmly in the lord, with the church that is in their house.

All the brethren send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
