Text -- 2 Timothy 4:1-12 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
Charge to Timothy Repeated
4:1 I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus , who is going to judge the living and the dead , and by his appearing and his kingdom :
4:2 Preach the message , be ready whether it is convenient or not , reprove , rebuke , exhort with complete patience and instruction .
4:3 For there will be a time when people will not tolerate sound teaching . Instead , following their own desires , they will accumulate teachers for themselves , because they have an insatiable curiosity to hear new things.
4:4 And they will turn away from hearing the truth , but on the other hand they will turn aside to myths .
4:5 You , however , be self-controlled in all things , endure hardship , do an evangelist’s work , fulfill your ministry .
4:6 For I am already being poured out as an offering , and the time for me to depart is at hand .
4:7 I have competed competed well ; I have finished the race ; I have kept the faith !
4:8 Finally the crown of righteousness is reserved for me . The Lord , the righteous Judge , will award it to me in that day – and not to me only , but also to all who have set their affection on his appearing .
Travel Plans and Concluding Greetings
4:9 Make every effort to come to me soon .
4:10 For Demas deserted me , since he loved the present age , and he went to Thessalonica . Crescens went to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia .
4:11 Only Luke is with me . Get Mark and bring him with you , because he is a great help to me in ministry .
4:12 Now I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus .
