2 Timothy 2
Big screen- 1You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
- 2And 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.
- 3You therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
- 4No man that wars entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.
- 5And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
- 6The farmer that labours must be first partaker of the fruits.
- 7Consider what I say; and the Lord give you understanding in all things.
- 8Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
- 9Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
- 10Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
- 11It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
- 12If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
- 13If we believe not, yet he abides faithful: he cannot deny himself.
- 14Of 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.
- 15Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
- 16But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
- 17And their word will eat as does a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
- 18Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
- 19Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, Let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
- 20But 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.
- 21If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
- 22Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
- 23But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
- 24And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, able to teach, patient,
- 25In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God possibly will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
- 26And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
