To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16] Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
2 Timothy 2:1–9 (AMP) 1 SO
YOU, my son, be strong (strengthened inwardly) in the grace (spiritual
blessing) that is [to be found only] in Christ Jesus. 2 And the
[instructions] which you have heard from me along with many witnesses, transmit
and entrust [as a deposit] to reliable and faithful men who will
be competent and qualified to teach others also. 3 Take [with
me] your share of the hardships and suffering [which you are called to endure]
as a good (first-class) soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier when
in service gets entangled in the enterprises of [civilian] life; his aim is to
satisfy and please the one who enlisted him. 5 And if anyone
enters competitive games, he is not crowned unless he competes lawfully
(fairly, according to the rules laid down). 6 [It is] the
hard-working farmer [who labors to produce] who must be the first partaker of
the fruits. 7 Think over these things I am saying [understand them
and grasp their application], for the
Lord will grant you full insight and understanding in everything. 8
Constantly keep in mind Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] risen from the dead,
[as the prophesied King] descended from David, according to the good news (the
Gospel) that I preach. 9 For that [Gospel] I am suffering affliction
and even wearing chains like a criminal. But the Word of God is not
chained or imprisoned!
2 Timothy 2:15–16 (The Living
Bible) 15 Work hard so God can say to you, “Well done.” Be a good workman,
one who does not need to be ashamed when God examines your work. Know what his Word says and means. 16
Steer clear of foolish discussions that lead people into the sin of anger with
each other.
2 Timothy 2:15–16 (AMP) 15 Study and
be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested
by trial), a workman who has no cause to
be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly
handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth. 16 But
avoid all empty (vain, useless, idle) talk, for it will lead people into more and
more ungodliness.
2 Timothy 2:15–16 (ESV) 15 Do your best
to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be
ashamed, rightly handling the word of
truth. 16 But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people
into more and more ungodliness,
2 Timothy 2:15–16 (CJB) 15 Do all you can to present
yourself to God as someone worthy of his approval, as a worker with no need to
be ashamed, because he deals
straightforwardly with the Word of the Truth. 16 But keep away
from godless babbling, for those who engage in it will only become more
ungodly,
2 Timothy 2:19–22 (CJB) 19
Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, stamped with these words: “The
Lord knows his own,” and, “Let everyone who claims he belongs to the
Lord stand apart from wrongdoing.” 20 In a large house
there are dishes and pots not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and
clay. That is, some are meant for honorable use and some for dishonorable. 21
If a person keeps himself free of defilement by the latter, he will be a vessel
set aside for honorable use by the master of the house and ready for every kind
of good work. 22 So, flee the passions of youth; and, along with
those who call on the Lord from a pure heart, pursue righteousness,
faithfulness, love and peace.
2 Timothy 2:19–22 (The Living
Bible) 19
But God’s truth stands firm like a great rock, and nothing can shake it. It is
a foundation stone with these words written on it: “The Lord knows those who
are really his,” and “A person who calls himself a Christian should not be
doing things that are wrong.” 20 In a wealthy home there are dishes
made of gold and silver as well as some made from wood and clay. The expensive dishes
are used for guests, and the cheap ones are used in the kitchen or to put
garbage in. 21 If you stay away from sin you will be like one of
these dishes made of purest gold—the very best in the house—so that Christ
himself can use you for his highest purposes. 22 Run from anything
that gives you the evil thoughts that young men often have, but stay close to
anything that makes you want to do right. Have
faith and love, and enjoy the companionship of those who love the Lord and have
pure hearts.
[Please Note: Always Read the
Word of God in Context, reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy
Spirit of the Living God to give you the interpretation. 2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
Philippians
2:9–11 (The Living Bible)9 Yet it was because of this that God raised him up to the heights
of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee shall
bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue
shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
