2 Timothy 3:17
Verse 17 of 17. The 3rd of 4 chapters in 2 Timothy, in The Letters of Paul.
13But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
2 Timothy 3:17 in the World English Bible
that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.Read 2 Timothy 3:17 in the WEB
Matthew Henry on 2 Timothy 3:17
It is of use to all, for we all need to be instructed, corrected, and reproved: it is of special use to ministers, who are to give instruction, correction, and reproof; and whence can they fetch it better than from the scripture? [3.] That the man of God may be perfect, v. 17. The Christian, the minister, is the man of God. That which finishes a man of God in this world is the scripture.
