“Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.”
For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands — Paul exhorts Timothy to anazōpureō (fan into flame) the charisma (gift) bestowed through cheirotonia (laying on of hands). The metaphor suggests dormant capacity requiring active rekindling.
