Chapter 3 | |
1 | This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. |
2 | 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; |
5 | Having a 1form
of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
|
6 | For of this sort are they which
creep into houses, and 1lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with
divers lusts,
|
7 | Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. |
8 | Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. |
9 | But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was. |
10 |
But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, |
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. |
12 | Yea,
and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer 1persecution.
|
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; |
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. |
16 | All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: |
17 | That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. |
