Context of 2 Timothy 3:11
9But these people will not make any more progress—for their folly, like that of Jannes and Jambres, will be obvious to everyone. 10You, however, closely followed my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faithfulness, patience, love, perseverance— as well as persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! And the Lord rescued me from them all! 12Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted. 13But evil men and imposters will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
