2 Timothy 2:1-5 ▼

1 So you, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2 And what you heard from me through many witnesses entrust to faithful people who will have the ability to teach others as well.

3 Bear your share of hardship along with me like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

4 To satisfy the one who recruited him, a soldier does not become entangled in the business affairs of life.

5 Similarly, an athlete cannot receive the winner’s crown except by competing according to the rules.
