(1 Timothy 1:1–2)

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, according to the promise of the life that is in Christ Jesus,

to Timothy, beloved child: grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

Faithfulness under Persecution

(Matthew 10:16–25)

I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers, with a clean conscience, as I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day.

As I remember your tears, I long to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

I have been reminded of your genuine faith, which lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice. And I am convinced that it lives in you also.

This is the reason I am reminding you to rekindle the gift of God in you through the laying on of my hands.

For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and discipline.

So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me, Paul, his prisoner. Instead, share in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God.

It is God who saved us and called us with a holy calling. He did this, not according to our works, but according to his own plan and grace. He gave us these things in Christ Jesus before times ever began.

But now God’s salvation has been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus. It is Christ who put an end to death and brought life that never ends to light through the gospel.

Because of this, I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher.

For this cause I also suffer these things. But I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed. I am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have entrusted to him until that day.

Holding to Sound Teaching

Keep the example of faithful messages that you heard from me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

The good thing that God committed to you, guard it through the Holy Spirit, who lives in us.

You know this, that all who live in Asia turned away from me. In this group are Phygelus and Hermogenes.

May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chain.

Instead, when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently, and he found me.

May the Lord grant to him to find mercy from him on that day. And all the ways he helped me in Ephesus, you know very well.

(1 Timothy 1:1–2)

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ

(a)

through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

Faithfulness under Persecution

(Matthew 10:16–25)

I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day

longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy;

having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, in you also.

For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,

who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,

but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.

For this I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.

Holding to Sound Teaching

Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.

May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,

but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently and found me

(the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.
