2Timothy:2:20-26
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
If 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 .
*
Flee also youthful lusts :
but follow righteousness ,
faith ,
charity ,
peace ,
with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart .
*
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid ,
knowing that they do gender strifes .
*
And the servant of the Lord must not strive ;
but be gentle unto all men ,
apt to teach ,
patient ,
*
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves ;
if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth ;
*
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil ,
who are taken captive by him at his will .
