2Timothy:3
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Know this also ,
that in [
the ]
last days grievous times will be at hand .
*
For men will be self-lovers ,
money-lovers ,
boasters ,
proud ,
blasphemers ,
disobedient to parents ,
unthankful ,
unholy ,
*
without natural affection ,
unyielding ,
false accusers ,
without self-control ,
savage ,
despisers of good ,
*
traitors ,
reckless ,
puffed up ,
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God ,
*
having a form of godliness ,
but denying the power of it ;
even turn away from these .
*
For of these are those who creep into houses and lead captive silly women loaded with sins ,
led away with different kinds of lusts ,
*
ever learning and never able to come to the full knowledge of [
the ]
truth .
*
But as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses ,
so these also resist the truth ,
men of corrupt mind ,
reprobate concerning the faith .
*
But they shall proceed no further .
For their foolishness shall be plain to all ,
as theirs also became .
*
But you have fully known my doctrine ,
manner of life ,
purpose ,
faith ,
long-suffering ,
love ,
patience ,
*
persecutions ,
afflictions ,
such as happened to me at Antioch ,
at Iconium ,
at Lystra .
What persecutions I endured !
But the Lord delivered me out of all .
*
Yea ,
and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted .
*
But evil men and seducers will go forward to worse ,
deceiving and being deceived .
*
But continue in the things that you have learned and have been assured of ,
knowing from whom you have learned [
them ],
*
and that from a babe you have known the Holy Scriptures ,
which are able to make you wise to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus .
*
All Scripture [
is ]
God-breathed ,
and is profitable for doctrine ,
for reproof ,
for correction ,
for instruction in righteousness ,
*
that the man of God may be perfected ,
thoroughly furnished to every good work .
