Chap. II.
He exhorteth him to labour diligently in his office, considering the revvard in Christ, and
his denial of them that deny him. 14 Not to contend, but to shunne heretikes:
neither to be moued to see some subuerted, considering that the elect continue Catholikes,
and that in the Church be of al sortes. 24 Yet vvith al svveetenes to
reclaime the deceiued.
1 Thov therfore my sonne, be strong in
the grace vvhich is in Christ Iesvs:
2 & the things vvhich thou hast heard
of me by many witnesses, these c&obar;mend
to faithful men, vvhich shal be fit to
teach others also.
3 Labour thou as
a good souldiar of Christ Iesvs.
4 09Q1318No
man being a souldiar to God, int&abar;gleth
him self vvith secular businesses: that he may please him to
vvhom he hath approued him self.
5 For he also that striueth
for the maisterie, is not crovvned vnlesse he striue lavvfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth, must first take of the
fruites.
7 Vnderstand vvhat I say: for our Lord vvil giue
thee in al things vnderstanding.
8 Be mindeful that our
Lord Iesvs Christ is risen againe from the dead, of the seede
of Dauid, according to my Gospel,
9 vvherein I labour
euen vnto bandes, as a malefactour: but the vvord of God is
not tied.
10 Therfore note I sustaine al things for the elect, that
they also may obtaine the saluation, vvhich is in Christ Iesvs,
vvith heauenly glorie.
11 A faithful saying. For if vve
be dead vvith him, vve shal liue also together.
12 If vve shal
sustaine, vve shal also reigne together. noteIf vve shal deny, he
also vvil denie vs.
13 noteIf vve beleeue not: he continueth
faithful, he can not denie him self.
14 These things admonish:
testifying before our Lord.
-- --
14 Contend not in vvordes, for it is profitable for nothing,
but for the subuersion of them that heare.
15 Carefully prouide
to present thy self approued to God, a vvorkeman not
to be confounded,09Q1319 rightly handling the vvord of truth.
16 But note profane and vaine speaches auoid: for they doe much
grovv to impietie:
17 &09Q1320 their speache spreadeth as a canker:
of vvhom is Hymenæus and Philêtus:
18 vvho haue erred
from the truth, saying that the resurrection is done already,
and haue subuerted the faith of some.
19 But the sure foundation of God standeth, hauing this
seale, Our Lord knovveth, vvho be his, and let euery one depart
from iniquitie that nameth the name of our Lord.
20 But
09Q1321 in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of
siluer, but also of vvood and of earth: and certaine in deede
vnto honour, but certaine vnto contumelie.
21 If any man
therfore shal09Q1322 cleanse him self from these, he shal be a vessel
vnto honour, sanctified & profitable to our Lord, prepared
to euery good vvorke.
22 But youthful desires flee: and pursue iustice, faith, charitie,
& peace vvith them that inuocate our Lord from a pure
hart.
23 And note foolish and vnlearned questi&obar;s auoid, knovving
that they ingender braules.
24 But the seruant of our
Lord must not vvrangle: but be milde tovvard al men,
apt to teache, patient,
25 vvith modestie admonishing them
that resist the truth: lest sometime note God giue them repentance
to knovv the truth:
26 and they recouer them selues
from the snares of the deuil, of vvhom they are held captiue
at his vvil.
