Monday 2 Timothy 2:17 [Foolish discussions] spread like cancer. Tuesday 2 Timothy 2:18 Others have left the path of truth, preaching the lie that the resurrection of the dead has already occurred, and they have undermined the faith of some. Wednesday 2 Timothy 2:19 But Your truth, God, stands firm like a foundation stone with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and “Those who claim they belong to the Lord must turn away from all wickedness.” Thursday 2 Timothy 2:20 In a wealthy home some utensils are made of gold and silver, and some are made of wood and clay. The expensive utensils are used for special occasions, and the cheap ones are for everyday use. Friday 2 Timothy 2:21 If I keep myself pure, I will be a utensil You, God, can use for Your purpose. My life will be clean, and I will be ready for You, Master, to use me for every good work. Zingers from Croft M. Pentz, Tyndale House Publishers 3891.
