Timothy’s Faith and Heritage

3 I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my aforefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day,  
4 greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy,
5 when I call to remembrance athe genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and byour mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.  
6 Therefore I remind you ato stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.  
7 For aGod has not given us a spirit of fear, bbut of power and of love and of a sound mind.

2 Timothy 1:3

II Timothy 1:3 Whom I serve from [my] forefathers. Like Timothy (II Timothy 1:5), he had been taught by his parents to fear and serve the Lord. Even before he became a Christian, he verily thought he served God. See Acts 23:1 24:14 Ro 11:23,24,28.
