2 Timothy 2:3

3 Share in suffering like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

2 Timothy 2:3 In-Context

1 You then, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus;
2 and what you have heard from me through many witnesses entrust to faithful people who will be able to teach others as well.
3 Share in suffering like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 No one serving in the army gets entangled in everyday affairs; the soldier's aim is to please the enlisting officer.
5 And in the case of an athlete, no one is crowned without competing according to the rules.
