2 Timothy 1:12 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

This is exactly why I'm going through all this suffering right now, but honestly? I'm not embarrassed about it at all. I know who I put my trust in, and I'm completely convinced that he's got the power to protect everything I've given him until the day that really matters.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Paul's basically saying 'yeah, life is hard right now, but I know God's got me covered when it counts.'
