2Ti 3:3

2Ti 3:3inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, fierce, haters of good,

2Ti 3:4

2Ti 3:4treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

2Ti 3:5

2Ti 3:5holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Avoid such people.

2Ti 3:6

2Ti 3:6For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses,

2Ti 3:7

2Ti 3:7who will listen to anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth.

2Ti 3:8

2Ti 3:8As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith;

2Ti 3:11

2Ti 3:11my persecutions, my sufferings, what befell me at Antioch, at Ico'nium, and at Lystra, what persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me.

2Ti 3:12

2Ti 3:12Indeed all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,

2Ti 3:13

2Ti 3:13while evil men and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceivers and deceived.

2Ti 3:14

2Ti 3:14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it

2Ti 3:15

2Ti 3:15and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
