was a Greek. 2He was well spoken of by the
brothers at Lystra and Iconium. 3Paul wanted
Timothy to accompany him, and he took him and
circumcised him because of the Jews who were in
those places, for they all knew that his father
was a Greek.

were not coming to you. 19But I will come to you

power. 20For the kingdom of God does not consist
in talk but in power.
