2 Timothy 3:10-17 - The Value Of The Scriptures

¹⁰ You carefully follow my teaching in conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, and patience, ¹¹ and also persecutions and sufferings. The things that happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured. Out of them the Lord delivered me. ¹² Yes, and all who would live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. ¹³ But evil men and impostors will become worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. ¹⁴ Continue in the things you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them. ¹⁵ From childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to make you wise to salvation through faith that is in Christ Jesus. ¹⁶ God inspired all Scripture! It is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness. (Greek: theopneustos: God-breathed) ¹⁷ Thus the man of God may be completely equipped for every good work.
