3. ✝️ 2 Timothy 2:1–13

Paul encourages Timothy to be strong in grace, endure hardship like a soldier, and remain faithful to the gospel. He reminds us that following Jesus means sharing in His suffering and glory. Even when we are faithless, Jesus remains faithful—because He cannot deny who He is.

“If we are faithless, he remains faithful— for he cannot deny himself.” (v. 13)

5. πŸ“ Reflection

Believing in Jesus is not just a simple statement—it’s a deep, mysterious reality.
To follow Christ is to die with Him and live with Him. To suffer for Him is to reign with Him.
If we deny Him, He will deny us. But here’s the miracle: even when we are faithless, He remains faithful.

Why? Because faithfulness is who He is.
We often think our faith depends on our strength, our choices, our consistency. But the truth is, Jesus’ unwavering faithfulness is the foundation of our faith.

This truth sets us free. It gives us joy even in suffering.
So today, rest in His faithfulness. Let it carry you through your weakness and lead you into freedom.

Scriptures

πŸ“– 1 You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, 2 and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also. 3 Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. 5 An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. 6 It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops. 7 Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.

8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, the offspring of David, as preached in my gospel, 9 for which I am suffering, bound with chains as a criminal. But the word of God is not bound! 10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with him, we will also live with him; 12 if we endure, we will also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us; 13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful—

for he cannot deny himself (2 Tim 2:1-13, ESV).
