nsb - 2Timothy:2

nsb@2Timothy:2:1 @ You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

nsb@2Timothy:2:2 @ What you have heard from me through many witnesses entrust to faithful people who will be able to teach others as well.

nsb@2Timothy:2:3 @ You must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

nsb@2Timothy:2:4 @ No soldier entangles himself in the affairs of this life. That way, he may please the one who enlisted him as a soldier.

nsb@2Timothy:2:5 @ If anyone competes as an athlete, he does not win the prize unless he competes according to the rules.

nsb@2Timothy:2:6 @ The hard-working farmer should be first to receive his share of the crops.

nsb@2Timothy:2:7 @ Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in all things.

nsb@2Timothy:2:8 @ Remember that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead. He is a descendant of David, according to my good news.

nsb@2Timothy:2:9 @ I suffer hardship even to imprisonment as a criminal. But the word of God is not imprisoned.

nsb@2Timothy:2:10 @ For this reason I endure all things for the sake of the chosen, so that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus and with it eternal glory.

nsb@2Timothy:2:11 @ This is a faithful saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him.

nsb@2Timothy:2:12 @ If we endure, we will also reign with Him. If we deny him, He will deny us!

nsb@2Timothy:2:13 @ If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny himself.

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.
