nsb - 2Timothy:2:14-26

nsb@2Timothy:2:14 @ Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to argue about words. This is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers.

nsb@2Timothy:2:15 @ Be diligent to be presented approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.

nsb@2Timothy:2:16 @ But avoid worldly and empty discussion, for it will lead to further ungodliness.

nsb@2Timothy:2:17 @ This kind of talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus.

nsb@2Timothy:2:18 @ These men have gone astray from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they upset the faith of some.

nsb@2Timothy:2:19 @ The foundation of God stands firm having this seal: »Jehovah knows those who belong to him,« and: »Everyone who names the name of Jehovah is to abstain from wickedness.«

nsb@2Timothy:2:20 @ Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor.

nsb@2Timothy:2:21 @ If anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.

nsb@2Timothy:2:22 @ Flee from youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, with those who call on the Lord with a clean heart.

nsb@2Timothy:2:23 @ But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing they produce quarrels.

nsb@2Timothy:2:24 @ The Lords servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, and patient when wronged.

nsb@2Timothy:2:25 @ He should instruct those who oppose using meekness. Perhaps God will give them repentance that they may know the truth.

nsb@2Timothy:2:26 @ They should come to their senses out of the snare of the Devil. He has taken them captive and they do his will.
