Timothy: Reputation and Christian Faith of

The brothers in Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him.

That is why I have sent you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which is exactly what I teach everywhere in every church.

If Timothy comes, see to it that he has nothing to fear while he is with you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, just as I am.

I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am convinced is in you as well.

From infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
