AI-assisted, sourced2 Timothy 2:14-26A workman approved of God
About 2 Timothy 2Paul tells Timothy to "be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus," to commit what he heard "to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also," and to "endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." He gives a faithful saying: "if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him," and "If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful." Timothy is to be "a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth," to shun vain babblings like those of Hymenaeus and Philetus, and to correct opponents "in meekness." 2 Timothy 2:12 Timothy 2:22 Timothy 2:32 Timothy 2:112 Timothy 2:132 Timothy 2:152 Timothy 2:162 Timothy 2:172 Timothy 2:252 Timothy overview
