2Timothy:2:20-26
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and earthenware ,
and some for noble use ,
some for ignoble .
*
If any one purifies himself from what is ignoble ,
then he will be a vessel for noble use ,
consecrated and useful to the master of the house ,
ready for any good work .
*
So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness ,
faith ,
love ,
and peace ,
along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart .
*
Have nothing to do with stupid ,
senseless controversies ;
you know that they breed quarrels .
*
And the Lord '
s servant must not be quarrelsome but kindly to every one ,
an apt teacher ,
forbearing ,
*
correcting his opponents with gentleness .
God may perhaps grant that they will repent and come to know the truth ,
*
and they may escape from the snare of the devil ,
after being captured by him to do his will .
