53. II TIMOTHY – Approach. 1 Tm. 6. 16.

When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain; Is. 57. 13.

Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, 2 Tm. 1. 9.–But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel: 2 Tm. 1. 10.–Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. 2 Tm. 2. 19.–Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 2 Tm. 4. 17.

(8) Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. 2 Tm. 4.
(4) Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 2 Tm. 3.
(1) I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Tm. 4.
[7] For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Tm. 1.
[5] But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 2 Tm. 4.
[2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2 Tm. 3.
