2 Timothy Chapter 3 003:001 But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come. 003:002 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 003:003 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, 003:004 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; 003:005 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof.
Turn away from these, also. 003:006 For of these are those who creep into houses, and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 003:007 always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 003:008 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so do these also oppose the truth; men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. 003:009 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
003:010 But you did follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness, 003:011 persecutions, and sufferings: those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. Out of them all the Lord delivered me. 003:012 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 003:013 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
003:014 But you remain in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them. 003:015 From infancy, you have known the sacred writings which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is in Christ Jesus.
003:016 Every writing inspired by God{literally, God-breathed} is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction which is in righteousness, 003:017 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
