2 Timothy 2:10-19

10For this reason 1I endure all things for 2the sake of those who are chosen, 3so that they also may obtain the 4salvation which is in 5Christ Jesus and with it 6eternal glory. 11 7It is a trustworthy statement: For 8if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;12If we endure, 9we will also reign with Him; If we 10 11deny Him, He also will deny us;13If we are faithless, 12He remains faithful, for 13He cannot deny Himself.

14Remind them of these things, and solemnly 14charge them in the presence of God not to 15wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. 15Be diligent to 16present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling 17the word of truth. 16But 18avoid 19worldly and empty chatter, for 20it will lead to further ungodliness, 17and their 21talk will spread like 22gangrene. Among them are 23Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18men who have gone astray from the truth saying that 24the resurrection has already taken place, and they upset 25the faith of some. 19Nevertheless, the 26firm foundation of God stands, having this 27seal, “28The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “29Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness.”
