2 Timothy 2:10 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Timothy 2:10

8 Remember that Jesus Christ, ^aof the seed of David, ^bwas raised from the dead ^caccording to my gospel,

9 ^afor which I suffer trouble as an evildoer, ^beven to the point of chains; ^cbut the word of God is not chained.

10 Therefore ^aI endure all things for the sake of the¹ elect, ^bthat they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11 This is a faithful saying:
For ^aif we died with Him,
We shall also live with Him.

12 ^aIf we endure,
We shall also reign with Him.
^bIf we deny Him,
He also will deny us.

13 If we are faithless,
He remains faithful;
He ^acannot deny Himself.
