Godless Times Will Come
2 Timothy
1 Paul advises Timothy of the difficult times to come, 6 describes the enemies of the truth, 10 explains unto him his own example, 16 and commends the holy Scriptures
Rom 1:302 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
Isa 29:13;Eze 33:30-32 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
Mat 23:146 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
1 Tim 2:47 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Exo 7:118 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
Exo 8:18;Exo 9:11 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
10 ¶ But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
Dan 6:27;Jer 1:19;Psa 34:19 11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
Mat 16:24;Joh 17:14;Act 14:22 12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
Act 10:43;Joh 20:31;Joh 5:39-40 15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
2 Sam 23:2;Mar 12:24;Luk 1:70 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
1 Tim 6:1117 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
