Continue in What You Have Learned

10 Yoʋ, however, have closely followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, and endurance. 11 Yoʋ know how much persecution and suffering I endured in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. Yet the Lord rescued me from it all. 12 Indeed, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 13 But evil people and imposters will become worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for yoʋ, continue in what yoʋ have learned and firmly believed, knowing from whom yoʋ have learned it, 15 and how from childhood yoʋ have known the sacred writings, which are able to give yoʋ wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is beneficial for teaching, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness, 17 so that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work.
