2 Timothy 2:24 in context

  1. 22But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
  2. 23But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strifes.
  3. 24And the Lord’s servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,
  4. 25in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,
  5. 26and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will.
