2 Timothy 2:11-19 (Epistle)

11
This is a faithful saying: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him.
12
If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us.
13
If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.
14

15
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16
But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.
17
And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort,
18
who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some.
19
Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.”
