2 Timothy 2:16 in Context — 2 Timothy 2
14 Recuérdales esto, protestando delante del Señor que no contiendan en palabras, [lo cual] para nada aprovecha, [antes] trastorna á los oyentes.
15 Procura con diligencia presentarte á Dios aprobado, [como] obrero que no tiene de qué avergonzarse, que traza bien la palabra de verdad.
16 Mas evita profanas [y] vanas parlerías; porque muy adelante irán en la impiedad.
17 Y la palabra de ellos carcomerá como gangrena: de los cuales es Himeneo y Fileto;
18 Que se han descaminado de la verdad, diciendo que la resurrección es ya hecha, y trastornan la fe de algunos.
