2 Timothy 3 :: New King James Version (NKJV)

Perilous Times and Perilous Men

Dangerous Times Are Coming

2Ti 3:1But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:

2Ti 3:2For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

2Ti 3:3

2Ti 3:3unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,

2Ti 3:4

2Ti 3:4traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

2Ti 3:5

2Ti 3:5having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

2Ti 3:6

2Ti 3:6For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

2Ti 3:7

2Ti 3:7always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

2Ti 3:8

2Ti 3:8Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith;

2Ti 3:9

2Ti 3:9but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

The Man of God and the Word of God

2Ti 3:10

2Ti 3:10But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance,

2Ti 3:11

2Ti 3:11persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.

2Ti 3:12

2Ti 3:12Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

2Ti 3:13

2Ti 3:13But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

2Ti 3:14

2Ti 3:14But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them,

2Ti 3:15

2Ti 3:15and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

2Ti 3:16

2Ti 3:16All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,

2Ti 3:17

2Ti 3:17that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
