2 Timothy

This was Paul's last known letter written to his "son in the faith," Timothy. It is believed to have been written while Paul was in the Roman dungeon sometime before his execution. In this letter, Paul charged Timothy to godliness, and courage during persecution. He spoke of how people will be during the last days, but Timothy should be different. He was to preach the word and do all his duties as a minster. He also was to guard his mouth, direct gently, and study the Scriptures. Paul declared he has been faithful to the end. The letter wrapped up with concerns and greetings about other people, and then ended with grace.
