2 Timothy 2:1-7 - Exhortation To Be Strong In Grace
1 Thou, therefore, my child, be empowering thyself in the favour that is in Christ Jesus, 2 And, the things which thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same, entrust thou unto faithful men, such as shall be, competent, to teach, others also.
3 Take thy part in suffering hardship, as a brave soldier of Christ Jesus: - 4 No one that is serving as a soldier, entangleth himself with the matters of his livelihood, that he may please him that hath summoned him to serve as a soldier; 5 If, moreover, any man, contend even in the games, he is not crowned, unless, lawfully, he contend; 6 The toiling husbandman, ought, first, of the fruits, to partake: 7 Think, as to what I am speaking; for the Lord will give thee discernment in all things.
