This charge, my son Timothy, I recommend to you, agreeably to the prophetic gifts heretofore conferr'd on you, by virtue of which you might carry on a successful warfare,
'tis for this end I have sent you Timothy, who is my dear disciple, and a faithful christian, who will inform you how I behave my self in every church where I teach the gospel of Christ.
you know he has stood the test, and has serv'd with me in the gospel, as a son serves with his father.
to Timothy my sincere convert, favour, mercy and peace from God our father, and Jesus Christ our Lord.
to Timothy, my dear son, grace, mercy and peace from God the father, and from Jesus Christ our Lord. When I remember you, as I continually do in my prayers night and day, I give thanks to God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, after the example of my fore-fathers. when I call to mind your affliction, it makes me ardently desire the exceeding pleasure I shall have in seeing you:
