Introduction to the Book of Daniel
Preach the Word! (2 Timothy Chapter 4)
In 2 Timothy 4, Paul charges Timothy to preach the Word faithfully, endure hardship, and fulfill his ministry. As Paul nears death, he reflects on finishing his race and keeping the faith, confident of the crown of righteousness and the Lord’s deliverance into His heavenly kingdom.
The Rise of False Teachers in the Last Days (2 Timothy Chapter 3)
2 Timothy 3 warns that the last days will be marked by widespread ungodliness—people loving themselves and pleasure rather than God, while only maintaining an outward form of religion. Paul contrasts this corruption with Timothy’s calling: to follow his example of faith, endurance, and suffering for Christ. The chapter closes with the reminder that all Scripture is God-breathed, profitable for teaching, correction, and training, fully equipping the servant of God for every good work.
Correcting False Teachers (2 Timothy 2:14-26)
In 2 Timothy 2:14-26, Paul urges Timothy to avoid quarrels, rightly handle God’s word, shun false teaching, and live as a clean vessel useful to God—pursuing righteousness, faith, love, and peace, while gently correcting opponents in hope of their repentance.
A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus (2 Timothy 2:1-13)
In 2 Timothy 2:1-13, Paul urges Timothy to be strong in Christ’s grace, faithfully teach others, and endure hardship like a soldier, athlete, or farmer. He emphasizes perseverance in sharing the gospel, noting that God’s word remains unchained despite suffering. Paul highlights the promise of eternal glory for those who endure, underscoring God’s faithfulness even when we are faithless.
