(2 Timothy 1:1–2)

Correcting False Teachers

(Titus 1:10–16)
3
As I desired thee to remain at Ephesus when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some not to teach otherwise,
4
Not to give heed to fables and endless genealogies: which furnish questions rather than the edification of God, which is in faith.
5
Now the end of the commandment is charity, from a pure heart, and a good conscience, and an unfeigned faith.
6
From which things some going astray, are turned aside unto vain babbling:
7
Desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither the things they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8
But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully:
9
Knowing this, that the law is not made for the just man, but for the unjust and disobedient, for the ungodly, and for sinners, for the wicked and defiled, for murderers of fathers, and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10
For fornicators, for them who defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and whatever other thing is contrary to sound doctrine,
11
Which is according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which hath been committed to my trust.

God’s Grace to Paul

12
I give thanks who hath strengthened me, even to Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he hath counted me faithful, putting me in the ministry;
13
Who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and contumelious. But I obtained the mercy of God, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
14
Now the grace of our Lord hath abounded exceedingly with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.
15
A faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into this world to save sinners, of whom I am the chief.
16
But for this cause have I obtained mercy: that in me first Christ Jesus might shew forth all patience, for the information of them that shall believe in him unto life everlasting.
17
Now to the king of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
18
This precept I commend to thee, O son Timothy; according to the prophecies going before on thee, that thou war in them a good warfare,
19
Having faith and a good conscience, which some rejecting have made shipwreck concerning the faith.
20
Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered up to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
(2 Timothy 1:1–2)
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ (a) our hope,
2
to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

Correcting False Teachers

(Titus 1:10–16)
3
As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
4
and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
5
But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
6
from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
7
desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
8
But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
9
as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10
for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
11
according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

God’s Grace to Paul

12
I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
13
although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
14
The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15
The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16
However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life.
17
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
18
I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
19
holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
20
of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
