2 Timothy 3-4

What will come in the last days? How will this be revealed in people?

In the last days people will love – themselves, money. They will be boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient tot heir parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, no self-control, love pleasure more than love God, have a form of godliness but not the power of God. Paul commands that we re not to have anything to do with such folk!


What is the purpose of Scripture?

The purpose of scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in the right way to live, so that, we may be equipped for every good work.
How does the author of Timothy face the end of his own life?
He feels as if he is a drink offering be poured out. He realizes his departure is at hand. He acknowledges though that he has fought the good fight, finished the race, and kept the faith. He is looking forward to the crown of righteousness that the Lord will award him.
