Paul's Last Testimony  / 2 Timonthy 3:1-8

Not long before his death, Paul wrote this moving letter to Timothy. These last words had powerful meaning for Timothy—and us. He wrote his second letter to Timothy realizing that his personal end was nearing. When we read some of the principles Paul addressed to Timothy, it can be easy to excuse ourselves by saying, “These are instructions for the ministers, not directly for me as a church member.”  But these instructions are for all who are a member of the body of Christ, operating in the household of faith and living in God’s Kingdom.Plain and Simple -

One of the most knowledgeable, influential and beloved men of history is the apostle Paul.  And here we have his famous last words. Paul was facing death. Paul was in Rome in prison for the second time, this time was much different that the first. During the first time he was incarcerated he was living in a rented house, able to have visitors at any times and was able to share the word of God with anyone who would listen.   He was not dying of a disease in a sterile hospital with loved ones gathered nearby.  He was very much alive, but his condition was terminal.  Convicted as a follower of Jesus of Nazareth, Paul sat in a cold Roman prison, cut off from the world, with just a visitor or two and his writing materials. Paul knew that soon he would be executed so he wrote his final thoughts to his son Timothy, passing to him the torch of leadership, reminding him of what was truly important, and encouraging him in the faith
