he used regarding his own teaching in II Tim. 1: 13, "the time will come when they will

not endure sound doctrine." If they left the apostle who alone received, by revelation, the

teaching of the mystery, they would soon leave the doctrine which he preached.

Timothy is exhorted, nevertheless, to preach the word--that word which Paul enjoined in

II Tim. 1: 13, even though few gave heed. So to-day, let us in some small measure stand

in the breach and proclaim the despised word of the neglected apostle, nay, the testimony

of our Lord through Paul His prisoner.
