2 Timothy 3:5 in context

  1. 3without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,
  2. 4traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
  3. 5holding a form of godliness, but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.
  4. 6For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
  5. 7always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
