In addition, at the inspiration of the Spirit poured out on him, he speaks of opponents who in the last days will rise up against the Church. 2Tim.3:1. In the last days, he writes, people will rise up who will oppose the truth not only with their words, but also with their behavior. From their very actions one must recognize the corruption of the teaching that they will spread with words. “People” will rise up, not giving themselves up, like me, to death for people, but - not beggars like me, who did not want gold, silver, or expensive clothes, but - not humble and humiliated, but - to their family, who admonish them, they turn out to be - do not do good deeds, do not repay benefactors with gratitude and are not distinguished by meekness, but Not merciful and preachers of peace, but 2Tim.3:3. cruel and intractable, - not caring for people, but on their neighbors - not a strict life, but - not haters of evil, but Not such as to take under their roof and shelter the persecuted, but persecuted, not such as to desire the way of life, but sensualists are more than lovers of God. In addition to the fact that they are deprived of the truth that is accomplished in God, they deny the truth itself, the appearance of which they take upon themselves in their evil deeds. They are slaves to the lusts of their flesh, and under the appearance of truth they make people captives of lies and deceit. - those in whom you see it, and They will not receive any benefit from you when, decorated, they approach you. They 2 Timothy 3:6. break into houses not for admonition and correction, but so that wives ok, burdened with sins, in which they revolve - and are carried away not into one, but into 2 Timothy 3:7. Always students that is, daily tasting the truth and returning back, 2 Timothy 3:8. But how Jannes and Jamne resisted Moses so these too resist the truth - people depraved in mind, ignorant in faith. And since they turned out to be crazy, doing what I listed, they cannot be successful. After all, their very deeds show that they do not know anything true (2 Tim. 3:9). 2 Timothy 3:10. You followed my teachings and the example that I showed you in myself - and mine, which you preached with great skill - and before my persecutors, and mine in all places - and the same mine from the pursuers who obstructed me. You yourself know how much I have suffered in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra. Antioch, of course, is not Syrian, but Phrygian (Pisidian), where the Jews armed the city rulers and rich women against them, caused great persecution against them and expelled them from their borders (Acts 13:14-50). In Iconium, after the previous persecution, the Jews and pagans launched a persecution and, rushing at him and Barnabas with stones, drove them out of the city (Acts 13:51, 14:5). Then in Lystra, on the accusation of the Jews who came there from Antioch and Iconium, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, considering him dead (Acts 14:6-19). That all this really happened is written about in the Acts of the Twelve Apostles. The Lord delivered me from all [persecutions], that is, not from torment, but from death. 2 Timothy 3:12. And everyone who wants to live in truth to the end, expose themselves to persecution. And those who hide with their lies under the guise of truth, 2 Timothy 3:13. prosper... will be for the worse, that is, to their evil, their lies increase and intensify, as well as those who after them will fall under deception. 2 Timothy 3:14. Continue in what you have learned from God through a spiritual man. You you know what people you learned from. 2 Timothy 3:15. And since your childhood Prophets, whose (scriptures) with their advice can... make you... wise to salvation, - I do not say to salvation according to the Old (Law), but to salvation according to the New (Law), - which is from the faith of Jesus... Christ, 2 Timothy 3:16. it [Scripture] is inspired by God, - that is, with the writings of people who received the Spirit, not for prophecy, but for reproof, for correction and for instruction about what the path of true life should be. perfect... man... of God new, established in all good deeds.
