SANCTIFIED -- for the Master's use.
2 Timothy 2:21
King James Version
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these,
he shall be a vessel unto honour,
sanctified,
and meet for the master's use,
and prepared unto every good work.
How can we be good vessels, to serve the LORD?
If God is the FOUNTAIN of LIVING WATERS, and Jesus is the LIVING WATER, then we constantly draw, from their WATER of LIFE.
We need to be sanctified, from the dross in us.
A true born again would know how to be a good vessel.
For he will be instructed by Spirit, each moment.
The Lord's WORD, and WILL, are all he will focus on.
He will also understand what these verses mean.
2 Timothy 2:1
King James Version
2 Thou therefore,
my son,
be strong in the grace
that is in Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 2:3
King James Version
3 Thou therefore endure hardness,
as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
2 Timothy 2:4
King James Version
4 No man that warreth
entangleth himself with the affairs of this life;
that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
2 Timothy 2:10
King James Version
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes,
that they may also obtain the salvation
which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
2 Timothy 2:11-14
King James Version
11 It is a faithful saying:
For if we be dead with him,
we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer,
we shall also reign with him:
if we deny him,
he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not,
yet he abideth faithful:
he cannot deny himself.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance,
charging them before the Lord
that they strive not about words to no profit,
but to the subverting of the hearers.
2 Timothy 2:15
King James Version
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God,
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:16
King James Version
16 But shun profane and vain babblings:
for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
2 Timothy 2:19
King James Version
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure,
having this seal,
The Lord knoweth them that are his.
And,
let every one that nameth the name of Christ
depart from iniquity.
2 Timothy 2:20
King James Version
20 But in a great house
there are not only vessels of gold and of silver,
but also of wood and of earth;
and some to honour,
and some to dishonour.
2 Timothy 2:22
King James Version
22 Flee also youthful lusts:
but follow righteousness,
faith,
charity,
peace,
with them that call on the Lord
out of a pure heart.
2 Timothy 2:23
King James Version
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid,
knowing that they do gender strifes.
2 Timothy 2:24
King James Version
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive;
but be gentle unto all men,
apt to teach,
patient,
2 Timothy 2:25
King James Version
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves;
if God peradventure will give them repentance
to the acknowledging of the truth;
With the goal, being:
2 Timothy 2:26
King James Version
26 And that they may recover themselves
out of the snare of the devil,
who are taken captive by him at his will.
