2 Timothy 2:12-20

12If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us.

13If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.

14Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers.

15Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

16But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.

17And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort,

18who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some.

19Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.”

20But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor.
