Chapter 3
II T NETfree 3:1  But understand this, that in the last days difficult times will come.
II T NETfree 3:2  For people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
II T NETfree 3:3  unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, opposed to what is good,
II T NETfree 3:4  treacherous, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God.
II T NETfree 3:5  They will maintain the outward appearance of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these.
II T NETfree 3:6  For some of these insinuate themselves into households and captivate weak women who are overwhelmed with sins and led along by various passions.
II T NETfree 3:7  Such women are always seeking instruction, yet never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.
II T NETfree 3:8  And just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these people - who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faith - also oppose the truth.
II T NETfree 3:9  But they will not go much further, for their foolishness will be obvious to everyone, just like it was with Jannes and Jambres.
II T NETfree 3:10  You, however, have followed my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,
II T NETfree 3:11  as well as the persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, and in Lystra. I endured these persecutions and the Lord delivered me from them all.
II T NETfree 3:12  Now in fact all who want to live godly lives in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
II T NETfree 3:13  But evil people and charlatans will go from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.
II T NETfree 3:14  You, however, must continue in the things you have learned and are confident about. You know who taught you
II T NETfree 3:15  and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
II T NETfree 3:16  Every scripture is inspired by God and useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
II T NETfree 3:17  that the person dedicated to God may be capable and equipped for every good work.
