Me? Perfect?

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

2 Timothy 3:17

Reading:

2 Timothy 3

Am I actively working with God to resist, overcome, and cleanse away ungodliness in my own heart?

Or do none of those things in verses 2-7 threaten and trouble me?

Is mine a pseudo godliness, consisting only of an outward form?

What does my learning do for me and for my relationship with truth?

How is my continuing (14)?

What effect is my acquaintance with the Holy Scriptures having on me?

“Throughly furnished unto all good works” — does my living manifest that?

[The Scriptures say in 2 Timothy 3:12 -- Live godly in Christ Jesus]
from 2 Timothy 3:12

Babbling Along

But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

2 Timothy 2:16

Reading:

2 Timothy 2:2:1-6, 15-26

What do I know about being strong in grace?

How are the affairs of this life affecting me?

Who is enjoying the fruits of my life?

Am I exerting myself to stand approved before God?

“Depart from iniquity” — How do I purpose to do that today?

Of what do I need to purge myself?

In my fleeing and following, am I doing so “with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart”?

Why should I be gentle and meek toward others?

Do I consider myself at risk of the devil’s snare?

[The Scriptures say in 2 Timothy 2:21 -- Be a vessel unto honour]
from 2 Timothy 2:21
