Bible (ASV) NT 16: 2 Timothy

The Second Epistle to Timothy, written by Paul around 67 A.D. during his second Roman imprisonment, is one of the three Pastoral Epistles in the New Testament. In this letter, Paul encourages Timothy to embrace courage and faithfulness in his ministry, urging him to combat false teachings and remain steadfast amid persecution. The epistle emphasizes the importance of diligence in fulfilling one's duties and reflects Paul's anticipation of his impending death, making it a significant work in Christian theology.
