2 Timothy 2:23 in context

2 Timothy 2:20–26

20

Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.

21

If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.

22

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

23
Selected verse

But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.

24

The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,

25

in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,

26

and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
