2 Timothy1:5

5 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee , which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, and I am perswaded that in thee also .

The Apostle expresseth another cause of his affection to Timothy, viz. his sincere owning and adhering to the profession of the Gospel.

As his Grandmother Lois and his Mother Eunice had done before him, (he saith nothing of his Father, for he was a Jew proselited or an heathen, Acts 16.1.) and though he could not infallibly determine, yet he was verily perswaded of his sincerity also.
