In this letter to Timothy, Paul encourages the young man whom he calls a son in the faith to preach the gospel boldly, clearly, unabashedly, and without fear. Paul encourages Timothy to know the Scriptures well so that he can preach the Scriptues well. The apostle has entrusted the work of gospel ministry to Timothy and he wants to make sure that Timothy is capable of training other men to do the same. To do the work faithfully, followers of Christ must expect to endure suffering. Paul warns that hard times will come in the last days, for there will be many who claim the faith with their mouths yet deny it with their actions, “holding to the form of godliness but denying its power.”
