DEDICATION

MY TIMOTHYS

I fear I have not been much of a Paul to you:
but, in your different ways, as my young colleagues
in the Work, you have been splendid Timothys to me.

Accept this book as a token of my grateful remembrance,
of my continued prayers, and of
my abiding affection.

FOREWORD

It is not usually considered to be polite to read other people's letters; but for eighteen weeks, at our Bible School, we have been venturing to look over Timothy's shoulder as he read this one; and we have made the discovery that, while it all concerned him, almost all of it also applied to us. I have been asked now to pass on to a wider circle what we have seen in the letter, for it transpires that, although it is a private communication, it is nevertheless intended to be public property, among believers.

May the HOLY SPIRIT, who inspired Paul's writing, assist our learning, and quicken our living.
