In 1 Timothy, Chapter 1, verses 7 - 12, the Apostle Paul shares with Timothy as the lengthening shadow of imminent execution and martyrdom for the faith edged closer to the horizon.  Faced with his own mortality, the appeal and exhortation he makes to his beloved son in the ministry in this letter, is distilled through a filter of clarity and urgency.  There are some things that Timothy needs to know; essential spiritual data; some classified information for him and for us.  Listen to this message by Dr. T. D. Stubblefield and explore “what every Christian needs to know.”
