2 Timothy 2:24
King James Version
“And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all apt to teach, patient,”
Context
21If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, prepared unto every good work.
22Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all apt to teach, patient,
25In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26And they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
