2 Timothy 1:7-8

2 Timothy 1:7-8. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to the power of God;

Timothy, never be ashamed of the gospel of Christ, and never be ashamed of Paul when he is put in prison for the sake of the gospel; but ask to partake, not only of the gospel, and of the power of it, but even of the afflictions which come for its sake, for this is one of the highest honours that can be put upon us, that we may suffer with God’s saints for the truth’s sake. Paul, in the 3rd chapter, goes on to tell Timothy of the danger of his times.

This exposition consisted of readings from 2 Timothy 1:1-8; 2 Timothy 3; and 2 Timothy 4:1-6
