2 Timothy 1:6
Compare all
4 greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy,
5 when I call to remembrance athe genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and byour mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.  
6 Therefore I remind you ato stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.  
7 For aGod has not given us a spirit of fear, bbut of power and of love and of a sound mind.  

Not Ashamed of the Gospel

8 aTherefore do not be ashamed of bthe testimony of our Lord, nor of me cHis prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God,  
9 who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, anot according to our works, but baccording to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus cbefore time began,  
10 but ahas now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,  
11 ato which I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher1 of the Gentiles.  
12 For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, afor I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.  

Be Loyal to the Faith

13 aHold fast bthe pattern of csound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.  
14 That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
15 This you know, that all those in Asia have turned away from me, among whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 The Lord grant mercy to the ahousehold of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain;
