The second letter of Timothy is part of what is theologically known as the pastoral letters along with first Timothy and Titus, as they are addressed to these young pastors. Timothy was instructed in the gospel by his mother Eunice and his grandmother Lois, although he was later mentored by the apostle Paul, forming him as a worker, as a man of God. The pastoral letters are primarily instructions on how to manage affairs in the church, but they do not leave aside the church in general, all those who are servants of Jesus Christ, as they are letters full of God's power and blessing. Second Timothy was probably written between the years 66 and 67 AD. It should be noted that this letter within its particularities has a very special one, and that is that it mentions Timothy's heritage of faith transmitted by his mother and grandmother, instilling in him those first spiritual values so decisive in life.
