2 Timothy 4 📜 📕 ↷

Preach the Word

1 I testify before God and JESUS Christ who shall judge the living and the dead, and by his advent, and his Kingdom:📜💬📚

2 Preach the word. Urge in season, out of season, reprove, beseech, rebuke, in all patience and doctrine.📜💬📚

3 For there shall be a time when they will not bear sound doctrine: but according to their own desires they will heap to themselves masters, having itching ears,📜💬📚

4 and from the truth certes they will avert their hearing, and to fables they will be converted.📜💬📚

5 But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an Evangelist, fulfill thy ministry. Be sober.📜💬📚

6 For I am even now to be sacrificed: and the time of my resolution is at hand.📜💬📚

7 I have fought a good fight, I have consummate my course, I have kept the faith.📜💬📚

8 Concerning the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which our Lord will render to me in that day, a just judge: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.📜💬📚
