The closing blessing belongs to Paul's solemn charge to Timothy in the fourth chapter of Second Timothy. It is to be read in connection with faithful doctrine held and taught without compromise. It is likewise to be read in connection with manner of life, with endurance under persecution, and with continuance in the holy scriptures. The charge and the blessing together bind steadfast belief, godly conduct, suffering for the truth, and abiding in Scripture into one pastoral appeal.
