Toisc gur duine tiomnaithe do Dhia, duine gur\nle Dia (\u201cduine le Dia\u201d!) \u00e9 Tiom\u00f3id n\u00ed m\u00f3r d\u00f3 bheith mar fhinn\u00e9 beo do luachanna\ncearta Cr\u00edosta\u00ed, agus luann P\u00f3l cuid diobh, ag tos\u00fa le creideamh. Iarrtar air\ncath an chredimh a fhearadh go calma, lena shl\u00ed bheatha agus firinne an\nchreidimh a chumhdach. Is fianaise don chreideamh beatha Thiom\u00f3id, agus cheannair\u00ed\nna heaglaise.

Ach b\u2019fh\u00e9idir go bhfuil tagairt ann do\nbriathra \u00cdosa do Phiol\u00e1it gur th\u00e1inig s\u00e9 ar an saol le fianaise a thabhairt ar\nan bhf\u00edrinne (Eoin 18:37). Deir P\u00f3l le Tiom\u00f3id an \u201caithne\u201d a choime\u00e1d gan ch\u00e1im, gan locht,\nagus b\u2019fh\u00e9idir gurb \u00e9 an aithne ghinear\u00e1lta an soisc\u00e9al a fhogairt at\u00e1 i\ngceist, seachas aithne \u00e9igin faoi leith. Cuirtear cr\u00edoch leis an sliocht le tagairt\ndo theacht, taispe\u00e1nadh, \u00cdosa Cr\u00edost\nathuair, a bhfuil Dia le taispe\u00e1int in am tr\u00e1th, \u201cina mhithid\u00ed f\u00e9in\u201d.
