1 Timothy 1:1-3

The Voice

1 Paul, an emissary^[a] of Jesus the Anointed commissioned by order of God our Savior and Jesus the Anointed, our living and certain hope), ² to you, Timothy, my true son in the faith.

May the grace, mercy, and peace that come only from God the Father and our Lord Jesus the Anointed mark your life.

³ As I said that day I left for Macedonia, stay in Ephesus and instruct the unruly people in the church, once and for all, to stop teaching a different doctrine.
