1
Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2
And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5
And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6
The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7
Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9
Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10
Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11
It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
14
Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16
But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17
And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18
Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
19
Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. Num 16:5, 26
20
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.
21
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.
22
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
Summary of 2 Timothy chapter 2; Paul makes an appeal to the followers he is preaching to. He wants them to not only learn from him, but also take what he has taught them and go forth to teach it to others. He asks them to be soldiers who suffer with him as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Closing Prayer;
Heavenly Father, thank You for the word of life that we have received from Paul, the other apostles, many witness, faithful men and others. Thank You for those men and women who have shared the gospel of God, through centuries of time, so that by grace through faith in Christ I have been born into Your family, and become Your child. Give me the will and opportunity to share the truth of the gospel of grace with others, and bring many into the kingdom for Your name’s sake. This we pray in Jesus name, AMEN.
For those who wish to become a child of our heavenly Lord, or strengthen thier faith, please pray the following prayer below.
Dear Heavenly Father, I want to be a part of your family. You said in Your Word that if I acknowledge that You raised Jesus from the dead, and that I accept Him as my Lord and Savior, I would be saved. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for forgiving me, saving me, and giving me eternal life with You. Amen!”
By saying this prayer, we believe you are born again.
