In his second letter to Timothy, the warmth and personal style continues. He has discipled Timothy and had ordained him. He has a fatherly relationship with Timothy and knew his mother and grandmother. In this second letter, St Paul emphasizes the absolute necessity of guarding “the deposit of faith.” That phrase is still a part of the ordination of Bishops. He urges him to teach the fullness of truth. He gives beautiful instruction concerning the sacred scripture and warns this young leader to not be deceived by the false teachers who were already causing problems in the early Church. These two letters to Timothy should be read and re-read by every Christian, and especially those who are ordained.
