2 Timothy 2:11 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Timothy 2:11

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.

14 Remind them of these things, ^acharging them before the Lord not to¹ strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers.

15 ^aBe diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
