2 Timothy 2:19-21

International Children’s Bible

¹⁹ But God’s strong foundation continues to stand. These words are written on that foundation: “The Lord knows those who belong to him.”^[a] And also these words are written on that foundation, “Everyone who says that he believes in the Lord must stop doing wrong.”

²⁰ In a large house there are things made of gold and silver. But also there are things made of wood and clay. Some things are used for special purposes, and others are made for ordinary jobs. ²¹ If anyone makes himself clean from evil things, he will be used for special purposes. He will be made holy, and the Master can use him. He will be ready to do any good work.
