CHAP. II.
2 The better to set out perseuerance in the Christian warfare,
3 he taketh similitudes 4 from souldiers, 6 and from husbandmen. 10 He sheweth that his bondes are for the profite
of the Saintes: 15 Then he warneth Timothie to deuide the
worde of trueth aright, 17 to beware of the examples of the
wicked, 22 and to doe all things modestly.
1 Thou note therefore, my sonne, be strong in the
grace that is in Christ Iesus.
2 And what things thou hast heard of me, by
note many witnesses, þe; same deliuer to faithfull men,
which shalbe able to teache other also.

souldier of Iesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth, entangleth himselfe
with the affaires of note this life, because he woulde
please him that hath chosen him to be a souldier.
5 noteAnd if any man also striue for a Masterie,
he is not crowned, except he striue as he
ought to doe.
6 noteThe husbandman must labour before he
receiue the fruites.
7 noteConsider what I say: and the Lord giue
thee vnderstanding in all things:
8 noteRemember that Iesus Christ, made of the
seede of Dauid, was raysed againe from the dead
according to my Gospel,
9 noteWherein I suffer trouble as an euill doer,
euen vnto bondes: but the worde of God is not
bounde.
10 Therefore I suffer all things, for the elects
sake, that they might also obtaine the saluation
which is in Christ Iesus, with eternall glorie.
11 noteIt is a true saying, For if we be note note dead
together with him, we also shall liue together
with him.
12 If we suffer, we shall also reigne together
with him: note if we denie him, he also will denie vs.
13 If note we beleeue not, yet abideth he faithfull:
he cannot denie himselfe.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance,
and note protest before the Lord, that they striue not
about wordes, which is to no profit, but to the peruerting
of the hearers.
15 noteStudie to shewe thy selfe approued vnto
God, a workeman that needeth not to be ashamed,
diuiding the worde of trueth note aright.
16 noteStay prophane, and vaine babblings:
note for they shall encrease vnto more vngodlinesse.
17 And their worde shall fret as a canker: of
which sort is Hymeneus and Philetus,
18 Which as concerning þe; trueth haue erred
from the marke, saying that the resurrection is
past alreadie, and do destroy the faith of certaine.
19 noteBut the foundation of God remaineth
sure, and hath this seale, The Lord knoweth who
are his: and, Let euery one that note calleth on the
Name of Christ, depart from iniquitie.

Of sundrie vessels.
20 noteNotwithstanding in a great house are not
onely vessels of gold & of siluer, but also of wood
and of earth, note and some for honour, and some
vnto dishonour.
21 If any man therefore note purge him selfe
from these, he shalbe a vessell vnto honour, sanctified,
and meete for the Lord, and prepared vnto
euery good worke.
22 noteFlee also from the lustes of youth, and
follow after righteousnes, faith, loue, and note peace,
with them that note call on the Lorde with pure
heart,
23 noteAnd put away foolish and vnlearned questions,
knowing that they ingender strife.
24 But the seruant of þe; Lord must not striue,
but must be gentle toward all men, apt to teache,
note suffering the euill,
25 Instructing them with meekenesse that are
note contrary minded, prouing if God at any time
will giue them repentance, that they may acknowledge
the trueth,
26 And come to amendement out of that snare
of the deuil, of whom they are taken prisoners, to
doe his will.
