In the first part of the meeting, the speaker takes up a couple of readings from 2 Timothy, to consider the apostle Paul, as he is writing at the end of his life. Noting from chapter 4, how the apostle could say “I am now ready to be offered”, the speaker unpacks from 2 Timothy 1:12 why that was the case. The speaker notes how Paul knew with rock-solid certainty, the One on whom he had believed. Dear reader, where is your faith resting? Do you have the same assurance that Paul had?
