Contrast: Desertion and Faithfulness

2 Timothy 1:15-18

thou hast known this, that they did turn from me--all those in Asia, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes;

may the Lord give kindness to the house of Onesiphorus, because many times he did refresh me, and of my chain was not ashamed,

but being in Rome, very diligently he sought me, and found;

may the Lord give to him to find kindness from the Lord in that day; and how many things in Ephesus he did minister thou dost very well know.
