is to stand by the truth, unlike the “wicked men” previously mentioned. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070799/60/0" data-bid="61-1" class="b">2Ti 3:13</a>) Timothy had been <strong>persuaded to believe.</strong> This phrase renders a Greek word that has the sense of being fully convinced. Timothy reasoned on what he had been taught by his mother, his grandmother, Paul, and others. He was convinced that what he had been taught was Scriptural, accurate, and trustworthy. He had every reason to continue in what he had accepted as truth.—<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070799/61/0" data-bid="62-1" class="b">Ro 12:1, 2</a>.</p> <p id="p51" data-pid="51" class="s5"><strong>knowing from whom you learned them:</strong> Timothy had been instructed from the Hebrew Scriptures by his mother, Eunice, and by his grandmother Lois. (See <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070799/20/0">study notes on 2Ti 1:5</a>.) But on becoming a Christian, he learned much from Paul as well as from other fellow Christians.—<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070799/62/0" data-bid="63-1" class="b">Ac 16:1, 2;</a><a
