Henceforth A Crown: An Exposition of Second Timothy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781440119903)

"Going beyond the common "text-in-context" approach to Paul's letter to Timothy, Dr. Henry T. Hudson introduces "pretext-and-subtext" into his exposition. He does this in order to bring home to the hearts of contemporary Christians what lay at the center of Paul's concern for the challenges that were before Timothy as he took over the leadership of the Church. Paul was in prison in Rome and was awaiting execution. The madman Nero was emperor. There were many false prophets abroad, and Christians everywhere were suffering persecution. Paul even told Timothy that "in the last days perilous times shall come." How would he then counsel him? He was, comparatively speaking, a young man. He was also afficted with frequent infirmities. Pastor Hudson explores what Paul wrote, and he does so, trying to enter into the mind and heart of Paul. He is of the opinion that what he wrote has pratical bearing for Christians facing the challenges of life in the twentieth century."
