His [ Titus'] tender affections toward you are greater as he remembers
the obedience of all of you, how you received him with fear and trembling " - 1 Corinthians 7:15

• Paul sends Titus ahead with the letter to Corinth with instructions to meet later in Troas
• Explains he's sending Timothy to them (the Corinthians ) and then come to him in Ephesus
• Says Apollos will visit them when he can

Paul leaves for Greece a few weeks later

Second Thessalonians was probably written soon after the first letter, perhaps in 51 C.E. In both letters, Timothy and Silvanus (called Silas in Acts) joined Paul in sending greetings, but we have no record of these three being together again after Paul’s stay in Corinth. (Acts 18:5, 18; 1 Thess. 1:1; 2 Thess. 1:1) - bt 19 p. 150 box

“We have a struggle . . . against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places” - Ephesians 6:12

"Avoid telling stories about the demons. In this regard, we want to imitate the example set by Jesus. (1 Pet. 2:21) Before he came to earth, Jesus lived in heaven, and he knew a lot about Satan and the demons. But he did not relate stories about what those wicked spirits had done. Jesus wanted to be a witness of Jehovah, not a publicity agent for Satan." - w19 4/15 p.23 par 13
