Cognate: 3852 paraggelía – a command, literally "something announced from close-beside" and therefore fully authorized. 3852 /paraggelía ("fully authorized command") is preeminently used of the Lord – the one who owns all things.

Christ speaks His rhēma-word into the believer – giving a command (3852 /paraggelía) that passes on His preferred-will (cf. Ro 10:17, Gk text and 2307 /thélēma). Accordingly, 3852 (paraggelía) and faith (4102 /pístis, "God's inworked persuasions") are directly connected. See 3853 (parangéllō).

1 Tim 1:5: "But the goal of our instruction (3852 /paraggelía) is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith (4102 /pístis)" (NASU).
