2 Timothy 2:11-15
Welcome to our online Bible study.
We are glad that you are here.
Today we are reading 2 Timothy 2.
As we read, these verses stood out to me:
2 Timothy 2:11-15 - It is a trustworthy statement: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him; 12 If we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He also will deny us; 13 If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself. 14 Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. 15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.
