The One and Only

From a letter written by the apostle Paul,

with Timotheus (Timothy), to believers in Philippi:

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to sent Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state. For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's. But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel. Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me. But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.-Philippians 2:19-24***The apostle Paul (Saul) was an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin, descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob (Israel) and his 2nd wife Rachel, and Jacob and Rachel's 2nd and last son Benjamin. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible do not reveal any information about Paul being married or having children. However, Paul it is revealed that Paul had at least 1 sister, and it was his sister's son who learned that a group of Israelites was planning to kill Paul. Paul's nephew told Paul about the plot, and Paul arranged for his nephew to tell the information to Roman commander Claudius Lysias. Other young men were especially beneficial to Paul, and 3 of them, Titus, Onesimus and Timothy (Timotheus), were regarded by Paul as sons. Paul, Titus, Onesimus, and Timothy believed Jesus, who had been crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven, to be the Christ, the Son of God. Timothy's mother Eunice  was an Israelite and Timothy's father was a Gentile, a person not born into the Israelite tribes. Titus was a Gentile. Onesimus was formerly a slave; his lineage is not revealed in the Holy Bible.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 8:1-40, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 6:1-8:4, 9:1-31, 11:19-28:31, Romans 16:1-27, 1 Corinthians 4:1-21, 7:1-40, 16:1-24, 2 Corinthians 1:1-24, Philippians 1:1-3:23, Colossians 1:1-29,  1 Thessalonians 1:1-10, 3:1-13, 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon
