2 Timothy 2:1

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

to my dearly loved child, Timothy: spiritual blessing, mercy, and peace be with you from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

to Timothy my genuine child in faith: spiritual blessing, mercy, and peace be with you from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

For the Spirit that God has given us does not impart timidity but power and love and self-control.

Be always on your guard; stand firm in your faith; keep on acting like men; continue to grow in strength;

but He said to me, "My spiritual strength is sufficient, for it is only by means of conscious weakness that perfect power is developed."

From now on you must grow stronger through union with the Lord and through His mighty power.

I can do anything through Him who gives me strength.

but instead, you must continue to grow in the spiritual strength and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be glory now and forever!
