What seems to be Paul’s most important?2 Timothy 4:9-13 (NASB95)9 Make every effort to come to me soon; 10 for Demas, having loved this present world,

has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

11 Only Luke is with me. Pick up Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service.

12 But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. 13 When you come bring the cloak which I left at

Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments.
