1 Corinthians 4:17

Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.

Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.

To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.

Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.

And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith: That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;

With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known unto you all things which are done here.

But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.

A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.

I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome. So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
