The Lord delivered me

2 Timothy 3:10, 11 kjv "But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me." The Apostle Paul wrote nearly all of the New Testament in the Bible. He wrote 13 books, possibly 14, out of the 27. This man was amazing. He  did not let the afflictions cause him to look away from Jesus, but only to Jesus. He's writing to Timothy and letting him know the only way to serve the Lord is with all of your heart, mind, and soul, and also to never give up, for Godly living in Christ Jesus will bring persecution. Through all the persecutions, and not being moved from the faith in Jesus, the church was built. We too must fully know this doctrine, and live in it and through it. The end times are here, and many will come against the believer because of the name of Jesus. They will mock and laugh, to the point of making the believer mad. Paul endured everything the devil hit him with, and so can we. The Lord is our deliverer. Learn all you can about Jesus Christ, and pray in the Holy Spirit. God Bless you.
