Compare: 2 Timothy 2

WEB

You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

WEB

The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

WEB

You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

WEB

No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.

WEB

Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.

WEB

The farmer who labors must be the first to get a share of the crops.

WEB

Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.

WEB

Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,

WEB

in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.

WEB

Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

WEB

This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.

WEB

If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.

WEB

If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”

WEB

Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord that they don’t argue about words to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.

WEB

Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.

WEB

But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,

WEB

and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:

WEB

men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.

WEB

However, God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”

WEB

Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.

WEB

If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.

WEB

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

WEB

But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.

WEB

The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,

WEB

in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,

WEB

and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
