2 Timothy 4:1-8
Preach the Word
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;
1:
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2:
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
3:
4 And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
4:
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
5:
6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
6:
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith:
7:
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.
8:
