2 Timothy 2:11-18 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

11. Here is a true message:“If we died with Christ,we will live with him.

12. If we don't give up,we will rule with him.If we denythat we know him,he will denythat he knows us.

13. If we are not faithful,he will still be faithful.Christ cannot denywho he is.”

14. Don't let anyone forget these things. And with God as your witness, you must warn them not to argue about words. These arguments don't help anyone. In fact, they ruin everyone who listens to them.

15. Do your best to win God's approval as a worker who doesn't need to be ashamed and who teaches only the true message.

16. Keep away from worthless and useless talk. It only leads people further away from God.

17. That sort of talk is like a sore that won't heal. And Hymenaeus and Philetus have been talking this way

18. by teaching that the dead have already been raised to life. This is far from the truth, and it is destroying the faith of some people.
