Like newborn babies, you should long for the pure milk of God’s word. It will help you grow up as believers.

I want to remind you about some things you already know. The Lord saved his people. At one time he brought them out of Egypt. But later he destroyed those who did not believe.

Tychicus will tell you all the news about me. He is a dear brother. He is a faithful worker. He serves the Lord together with us.

Let the message about Christ live among you like a rich treasure. Teach and correct one another wisely. Teach one another by singing psalms and hymns and songs from the Spirit. Sing to God with thanks in your hearts.

It is for those who commit sexual sins. It is for those who commit homosexual acts. It is for people who buy and sell slaves. It is for liars. It is for people who tell lies in court. It is for those who are a witness to things that aren’t true. And it is for anything else that is the opposite of true teaching.

Keep reminding God’s people of these things. While God is watching, warn them not to argue about words. That doesn’t have any value. It only destroys those who listen.Do your best to please God. Be a worker who doesn’t need to be ashamed. Teach the message of truth correctly.

But what you teach must agree with true teaching.

This is why I remind you to help God’s gift grow, just as a small spark grows into a fire. God put his gift in you when I placed my hands on you.

So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning you. Night and day I warned each of you with tears.

Do what is good. Set an example for them in everything. When you teach, be honest and serious.No one can question the truth. So teach what is true. Then those who oppose you will be ashamed. That’s because they will have nothing bad to say about us.Teach slaves to obey their masters in everything they do. Tell them to try to please their masters. They must not talk back to them.They must not steal from them. Instead, they must show that they can be trusted completely. Then they will make the teaching about God our Savior appealing in every way.

In everything I did, I showed you that we must work hard and help the weak. We must remember the words of the Lord Jesus. He said,‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”

They aren’t connected anymore to the head, who is Christ. But the whole body grows from the head. The muscles and tendons hold the body together. And God causes it to grow.

We sent our brother Timothy to give you strength and hope in your faith. He works together with us in God’s service to spread the good news about Christ.

Suppose someone teaches something different than I have taught. Suppose that person doesn’t agree with the true teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. Suppose they don’t agree with godly teaching.

Only let us live up to what we have already reached.

But I want you to continue to follow what you have learned and are sure about. You know the people you learned it from.You have known the Holy Scriptures ever since you were a little child. They are able to teach you how to be saved by believing in Christ Jesus.God has breathed life into all Scripture. It is useful for teaching us what is true. It is useful for correcting our mistakes. It is useful for making our lives whole again. It is useful for training us to do what is right.By using Scripture, the servant of God can be completely prepared to do every good thing.

He said to them,“ Every teacher of the law who has become a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house. He brings new treasures out of his storeroom as well as old ones.”

So I will always remind you of these things. I’ll do it even though you know them. I’ll do it even though you now have deep roots in the truth.I think it is right for me to remind you. It is right as long as I live in this tent. I’m talking about my body.I know my tent will soon be removed. Our Lord Jesus Christ has made that clear to me.I hope that you will always be able to remember these things after I’m gone. I will try very hard to see that you do.

The law of the Lord is perfect. It gives us new strength. The laws of the Lord can be trusted. They make childish people wise.

Jesus answered,“ What I teach is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me.Here is how someone can find out whether my teaching comes from God or from me. That person must choose to do what God wants them to do.

Be careful of how you live and what you believe. Never give up. Then you will save yourself and those who hear you.

That’s the reason I have sent Timothy to you. He is like a son to me, and I love him. He is faithful in serving the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in serving Christ Jesus. And that agrees with what I teach everywhere in every church.

Instead, we make it clear that we serve God in every way. We serve him by standing firm in troubles, hard times and suffering.

I give you good advice. So don’t turn away from what I teach you.

Instead, we will speak the truth in love. So we will grow up in every way to become the body of Christ. Christ is the head of the body.He makes the whole body grow and build itself up in love. Under the control of Christ, each part of the body does its work. It supports the other parts. In that way, the body is joined and held together.

But I have written to you very boldly about some things. I wanted to remind you of them again. The grace of God has allowed me

But you know all about my teaching. You know how I live and what I live for. You know about my faith and love. You know how patient I am. You know I haven’t given up.

When I received your words, I ate them. They filled me with joy. My heart took delight in them. Lord God who rules over all, I belong to you.

He has given us the power to serve under a new covenant. The covenant is not based on the written Law of Moses. It comes from the Holy Spirit. The written Law kills, but the Spirit gives life.

Tychicus is a dear brother. He is faithful in serving the Lord. He will tell you everything about me. Then you will know how I am and what I am doing.

So here is how you should think of us. We serve Christ. We are trusted with the mysteries God has shown us.Those who have been given a trust must prove that they are faithful.

Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders. I want to encourage you to think in a way that is pure.I want you to remember the words the holy prophets spoke in the past. Remember the command our Lord and Savior gave through your apostles.

The time will come when people won’t put up with true teaching. Instead, they will try to satisfy their own desires. They will gather a large number of teachers around them. The teachers will say what the people want to hear.
