2 Timothy 4:2-4

Worldwide English (New Testament)

² Tell people the word of God. Be ready to do it at any time. Show people they are wrong and talk to them about it. Tell them what they should do. Be very patient with them and teach them in many ways.

³ The time is coming when people will not listen to good teaching. They will want to listen to the things they like to hear. And they will bring in many teachers who will teach them just what they want to do.

⁴ They will not listen to what is true, but will turn away and listen to strange stories.
