"This charge I commit to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophetic utterances which pointed to you, that inspired by them you may wage the good warfare"
(1 Tim 1:18)
and here :
"You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus"
(2 Tim. 2:1)
or here :
"But Timothy’s worth you know, how as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel"
(Phil. 2:22).
There are a good many more, but go ahead, pretend to know what you're talking about.
The media and government gin up support for their attacks on Christianity and the useful idiots of anti-Catholicism jump on the media bandwagon to help them while their fellow Christians perish in the heresy of Korah.
But the Catholic Catechism says Islam ok....lmao what a joke. Its Roman pagan garbage mixed with Christianity for the roman empire under Constantine. The apostles and Jesus had nothing to do with all these satanic symbolism and practices.
Greek ) teknon - Definition: a child, descendent, inhabitant. [http://biblehub.com/greek/5043.htm]
5043 téknon – properly, a child; (figuratively) anyone living in full dependence on the heavenly Father, i.e. fully (willingly) relying upon the Lord in glad submission. This prompts God to transform them into His likeness. [http://biblehub.com/greek/5043.htm]
Now, prove that Paul was clearly referring to Timothy as his "son" as in a fatherly sense.
Philippians 2:22 But you know of his proven worth, that he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel like a child serving his father.
Using the likeness doesn't show that he was a father to Timothy. Only that it was like a child serving his father.
There are a good many more, but go ahead, pretend to know what you're talking about. You still need to prove that the intent of Paul was to present himself as a father like Catholics would like to portray.
