2 Timothy Chapter 3 (NASB)
undefined
But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.
undefined
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
undefined
unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good,
undefined
treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
undefined
holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these.
undefined
For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses,
undefined
always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
undefined
Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these [men] also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith.
undefined
But they will not make further progress; for their folly will be obvious to all, just as Jannes's and Jambres's folly was also.
undefined
Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance,
undefined
persecutions, [and] sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium [and] at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me!
undefined
Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
undefined
But evil men and impostors will proceed [from bad] to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
undefined
You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned [them],
undefined
and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
undefined
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;
undefined
so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.
