...THE WORD
Paul spoke highly of Priscilla, wife of Aquila, who taught others of Christ in their household. She taught. He taught.
Claudia is a lady mentioned, too, who is working with Paul in his ministry.
Paul says: "Preach the Word," in season and out of season, this just means to preach the Word all the time, as the Lord leads, I will always say.
So, what do you think of Paul's last words in 2 Timothy 4, let me highlight several key words and phrases to help you out.
Pray to Him for answers, revelation, and, remember, we are to speak in Love and this is likely to be a HOT topic and controversial but should it be ? I don't know. That's up to you
Do note, anger keeps us from Him, allows Satan to rise into our thoughts IF we go to bed with 'them' unforgiven. Eph. 4
Paul's final words in Scripture, from 2 Timothy 4:
Many, many folks--men and women--served in Paul's ministry, other women mentioned as being 'servants' or 'deacons,' scome Scripture states, helped Paul. Phoebe was one, and, you can read other women in Romans 16 as Paul praises their 'work.'
---------------------------------------
OK, so that said, and, Priscilla is the wife of Aquila and both taught in their household the gospel of Christ as was Paul's main desire in his life, if you read Romans, you will see Paul's distinct wanton desire of this ABOVE all else.
Paul was in control of the workers under Him, with, ,of course, God over Paul, His Spirit working through Paul in a 'great' way, which can be read quite clearly in 1 Corinthians 1 . Paul KNEW that Go was who was followed, and, who led. The Lord leads
We are only to follow Christ, we are CRUCIFIED with Christ whence upon we actively CHOOSE Him as our SAviour and Lord as He has drawn us to Him. ALL of us get drawn, not all want to be drawn. Why so?
What fun is it to be His IF we have to PREACH THE GOSPEL.
Men, women, children, HERE, Paul doesn't single out a man here, or, a woman, no, He simply is WANTING those of his ministry to PREACH THE WORD, to help people who are listening to not sound doctrine be understanding of His Truth
I highlighted an 'evangelist,' is an evangelist a preacher ? Or, a teacher? Or, a missionary?
Therefore, what was Claudia, what was Aquila considered to be in Paul's ministry that was led by the Lord .
Note: I pray we all speak out thoughts on this potentially HOT TOPIC in Love, His Love given us, that we saw when we first Loved Him because we realized He, first, Loved us. )
Out of faith, and, hope, love is most important, not just any 'love,' mind you, but His shown in us to others, to ourselves, and, to Him, first

Paul's final words in Scripture, from 2 Timothy 4:
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry. 6For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. 7I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
Personal Remarks
9Do your best to come to me quickly, 10for Demas, because he loved this world, has deserted me and has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. 11Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is helpful to me in my ministry. 12I sent Tychicus to Ephesus. 13When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, and my scrolls, especially the parchments.
14Alexander the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him for what he has done. 15You too should be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message.
16At my first defense, no one came to my support, but everyone deserted me. May it not be held against them. 17But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion’s mouth. 18The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Final Greetings
19Greet Priscilla[SUP]a[/SUP] and Aquila and the household of Onesiphorus. 20Erastus stayed in Corinth, and I left Trophimus sick in Miletus. 21Do your best to get here before winter. Eubulus greets you, and so do Pudens, Linus, Claudia and all the brothers and sisters.[SUP]b[/SUP]

I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,[SUP]a[/SUP] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. 11My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you. 12What I mean is this: One of you says, “I follow Paul”; another, “I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas[SUP]b[/SUP] ”; still another, “I follow Christ.” 13Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15so no one can say that you were baptized in my name. 16(Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don’t remember if I baptized anyone else.) 17For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
