and I am persuaded that in thee also.</p> + +<p>55:001:006 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift<br> + of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.</p> + +<p>55:001:007 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power,<br> + and of love, and of a sound mind.</p> + +<p>55:001:008 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord,<br> + nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the<br> + afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;</p> + +<p>55:001:009 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not<br> + according to our works, but according to his own purpose and<br> + grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world<br> + began,</p> + +<p>55:001:010 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus<br> + Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and<br> + immortality to light through the gospel:</p> + +<p>55:001:011 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a<br> + teacher of the Gentiles.</p> + +<p>55:001:012 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I<br> + am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am<br> + persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed<br> + unto him against that day.</p> + +<p>55:001:013 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of<br> + me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.</p> + +<p>55:001:014 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy<br> + Ghost which dwelleth in us.</p> + +<p>55:001:015 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned<br> + away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.</p> + +<p>55:001:016 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft<br> + refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:</p> + +<p>55:001:017 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently,<br> + and found me.</p> + +<p>55:001:018 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in<br> + that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at<br> + Ephesus, thou knowest very well.</p> + +<p>55:002:001 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in<br> + Christ Jesus.</p> + +<p>55:002:002 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many<br> + witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be<br> + able to teach others also.</p> + +<p>55:002:003 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus<br> + Christ.</p> + +<p>55:002:004 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of<br> + this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a<br> + soldier.</p> + +<p>55:002:005 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned,<br> + except he strive lawfully.</p> + +<p>55:002:006 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the<br> + fruits.</p> + +<p>55:002:007 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in<br> + all things.</p> + +<p>55:002:008 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised<br> + from the dead according to my gospel:</p> + +<p>55:002:009 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds;<br> + but the word of God is not bound.</p> + +<p>55:002:010 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they<br> + may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with<br> + eternal glory.</p> + +<p>55:002:011 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall<br> + also live with him:</p> + +<p>55:002:012 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he<br> + also will deny us:</p> + +<p>55:002:013 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny<br> + himself.</p> + +<p>55:002:014 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before<br> + the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to<br> + the subverting of the hearers.</p> + +<p>55:002:015 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that<br> + needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.</p> + +<p>55:002:016 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase<br> + unto more ungodliness.</p> + +<p>55:002:017 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus<br> + and Philetus;</p> + +<p>55:002:018 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the<br> + resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.</p> + +<p>55:002:019 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this<br> + seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his.
