II Timothy 3: 10-17
CHAIN REACTION
PMR

2Ti 3:10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose,
faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
2Ti 3:11 Persecutions,
afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what
persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
2Ti
3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution.
2Ti 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and
worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
2Ti 3:14 But continue thou in
the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom
thou hast learned them;
2Ti 3:15 And that from a child thou hast known
the holy Scriptures, which are able to make thee unto salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus.
2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is given by
inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:
2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be
perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

1.) CREATION – no man is an island
2.) RELATION – people not things that make life worthwhile
3.) CONDEMNATION – sowing and reaping principle (Romans 5:12)
4.) SALVATION – one man’s death is a result of life
