2 Timothy 2:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

2 Timothy 2:5. And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

There were rules in the Grecian games. When they struck each other, the blow was not to be given except upon a certain part of the body, and if a man fought unlawfully, he could not get the prize. So there are laws, too, for the Christian ministry, and also holy regulations for the great wrestling of Christians.
