2 Timothy Chapter 2|#11 you therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.#22 And the things that you have heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit you to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.|*23 You therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.#24 No one that warreth entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.#25 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.#26 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.#27 Consider what I say; and the Lord give you understanding in all things.|*28 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:#29 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even to bonds; but the word of God is not bound.#210 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.|*211 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:#212 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: If we deny him, he also will deny us:#213 If we do not believe, yet he abides faithful: He cannot deny himself.|*214 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.#215 Study to shew yourself approved to God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.#216 But shun profane and vain babblings: For they will increase to more ungodliness.#217 And their word will eat as does a canker: Of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;#218 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.#219 Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, Let everyone that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.#220 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.#221 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared to every good work.|*222 Flee also youthful lusts: But follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.#223 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do cause strifes.#224 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle to all men, able to teach, patient,#225 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God perhaps will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;#226 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
