2 Timothy 2
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus:

2 and the things which thou hast heard from me, before many witnesses, these commit to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

11 It is an undoubted truth, if we are dead with Him, we shall also live with Him:

14 These things remind them of, charging them before the Lord not to contend about words, which is profitable for nothing, and tends to the subversion of the hearers.
