2 Timothy 1

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,
 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
 Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;
 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;
 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
 10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:
 11 Where unto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
 12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
 13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
 14 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.
 15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
 16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
 17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
 18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

2 Timothy 2

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
 10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
 11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
 13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
 14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
 16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
 17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenæus and Philetus;
 18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
 19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
 22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Hebrews 10



 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
 10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
 11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
 12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
 13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
 14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
 15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
 16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
 17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
 18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
 19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
 20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
 21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
 22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
 23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
 26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
 27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
 28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
 29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
 30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
 32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
 33 Partly, whilst ye were made a gazing stock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
 34 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
 35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
