Take your share of suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

for which I suffer hardship to the point of imprisonment as a criminal, but God’s message is not imprisoned!

and their message will spread its infection like gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are in this group.

But they will not go much further, for their foolishness will be obvious to everyone, just like it was with Jannes and Jambres.

I am thankful to God, whom I have served with a clear conscience as my ancestors did, when I remember you in my prayers as I do constantly night and day.
