4 if ... will ... statements in 2 Timothy 2

2 Timothy 2:11-13
Here is a trustworthy saying:

if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.

4 Further Elements in Paul's Charge to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:5

2 Timothy 4:4, 5
They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you,

keep your head in all situations,
endure hardship,
do the work of an evangelist,
discharge all the duties of your ministry. 

5 Initial Elements in Paul's charge to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:2

2 Timothy 4:1-3
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 

Preach the word;
be prepared in season and out of season;
correct,
rebuke
and encourage - with great patience and careful instruction. 

For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

4 Eschatological Crowns in the New Testament



1 Corinthians 9:24, 25 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last for ever.

2 Timothy 4:8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day – and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing

James 1:12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
{Cf Revelation 2:10 Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown.)

1 Peter 5:4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
