+
+
+Book 55 2 Timothy
+001:001 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God,
+ according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
+001:002 to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace,
+ from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
+001:003 I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a
+ pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions,
+ night and day
+001:004 longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be
+ filled with joy;
+001:005 having been reminded of the unfeigned faith that is in you;
+ which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your
+ mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, in you also.
+001:006 For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift
+ of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
+001:007 For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power,
+ love, and self-control.
+001:008 Therefore don't be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord,
+ nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News
+ according to the power of God,
+001:009 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according
+ to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace,
+ which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,
+001:010 but has now been revealed by the appearing of our
+ Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life
+ and immortality to light through the Good News.
+001:011 For this, I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle,
+ and a teacher of the Gentiles.
+001:012 For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed,
+ for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded
+ that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him
+ against that day.
+001:013 Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me,
+ in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
+001:014 That good thing which was committed to you, guard through
+ the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
+001:015 This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me;
+ of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
+001:016 May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus,
+ for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,
+001:017 but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently, and found me
+001:018 (the Lord grant to him to find the Lord's mercy in that day);
+ and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.
+002:001 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is
+ in Christ Jesus.
+002:002 The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses,
+ commit the same to faithful men, who will be able to
+ teach others also.
+002:003 You therefore must endure hardship, as a good soldier
+ of Christ Jesus.
+002:004 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life,
+ that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
+002:005 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn't crowned unless
+ he has competed by the rules.
+002:006 The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share
+ of the crops.
+002:007 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding
+ in all things.
+002:008 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David,
+ according to my Good News,
+002:009 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal.
+ But God's word isn't chained.
+002:010 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that they
+ also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus
+ with eternal glory.
+002:011 This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will
+ also live with him.
+002:012 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him,
+ he also will deny us.
+002:013 If we are faithless, he remains faithful. He can't deny himself."
+002:014 Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight
+ of the Lord, that they don't argue about words, to no profit,
+ to the subverting of those who hear.
+002:015 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God,
+ a workman who doesn't need to be ashamed, properly handling
+ the Word of Truth.
+002:016 But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
+002:017 and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is
+ Hymenaeus and Philetus;
+002:018 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection
+ is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
+002:019 However God's firm foundation stands, having this seal,
+ "The Lord knows those who are his,"{Numbers 16:5} and,
+ "Let every one who names the name of the Lord{TR reads "Christ"
+ instead of "the Lord"} depart from unrighteousness."
+002:020 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and
+ of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor,
+ and some for dishonor.
+002:021 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel
+ for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use,
+ prepared for every good work.
+002:022 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love,
+ and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
+002:023 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that
+ they generate strife.
+002:024 The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all,
+ able to teach, patient,
+002:025 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may
+ give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
+002:026 and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare,
+ having been taken captive by him to his will.
+003:001 But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come.
+003:002 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful,
+ arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
+003:003 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers,
+ without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good,
+003:004 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather
+ than lovers of God;
+003:005 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof.
+ Turn away from these, also.
+003:006 For of these are those who creep into houses, and take captive
+ gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
+003:007 always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge
+ of the truth.
+003:008 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so do these also oppose
+ the truth; men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith.
+003:009 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be
+ evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
+003:010 But you did follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith,
+ patience, love, steadfastness,
+003:011 persecutions, and sufferings: those things that happened to me
+ at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions.
+ Out of them all the Lord delivered me.
+003:012 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus
+ will suffer persecution.
+003:013 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse,
+ deceiving and being deceived.
+003:014 But you remain in the things which you have learned and have
+ been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them.
+003:015 From infancy, you have known the sacred writings which are
+ able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is
+ in Christ Jesus.
+003:016 Every writing inspired by God{literally, God-breathed} is
+ profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction,
+ and for instruction which is in righteousness,
+003:017 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped
+ for every good work.
+004:001 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ,
+ who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing
+ and his Kingdom:
+004:002 preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season;
+ reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching.
+004:003 For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound
+ doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves
+ teachers after their own lusts;
+004:004 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn
+ aside to fables.
+004:005 But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work
+ of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.
+004:006 For I am already being offered, and the time of my
+ departure has come.
+004:007 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course.
+ I have kept the faith.
+004:008 From now on, there is stored up for me the crown of righteousness,
+ which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on
+ that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have
+ loved his appearing.
+004:009 Be diligent to come to me soon,
+004:010 for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went
+ to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.
+004:011 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you,
+ for he is useful to me for service.
+004:012 But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
+004:013 Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come,
+ and the books, especially the parchments.
+004:014 Alexander, the coppersmith, did much evil to me.
+ The Lord will repay him according to his works,
+004:015 of whom you also must beware; for he greatly opposed our words.
+004:016 At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me.
+ May it not be held against them.
+004:017 But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that through me
+ the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles
+ might hear; and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
+004:018 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will
+ preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory
+ forever and ever. Amen.
+004:019 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.
+004:020 Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus at Miletus sick.
+004:021 Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you,
+ as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.
+004:022 The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be
+ with you. Amen.

+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:

+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
