2 Timothy 2:16-22

16Avoid irreverent and empty speech, since those who engage in it will produce even more godlessness,

17and their teaching will spread like gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are among them.

18They have departed from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already taken place, and are ruining the faith of some.

19Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, bearing this inscription: The Lord knows those who are his, and let everyone who calls on the name of the Lord turn away from wickedness.

20Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also those of wood and clay; some for honorable use and some for dishonorable.

21So if anyone purifies himself from anything dishonorable, he will be a special instrument, set apart, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.

22Flee from youthful passions, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
