The point is that to be a worthy and approved servant of God, Timothy had to ‘ do his utmost ’ to be sure that his teaching and his conduct were in accordance with the word of truth. ​ — 1 Timothy 4: 16.
Līdzīgi bija ar Timoteju: lai viņš būtu cienīgs un atzīts Dieva kalps, viņam bija jādara viss iespējamais, lai viņa mācība un uzvedība būtu saskaņā ar patiesības vārdu.
