Enduring Hardships 2 Timothy 2:8-1311 Here is a trustworthy saying:     If we died with him,         we will also live with him;12 if we endure,         we will also reign with him.     If we disown him,         he will also disown us;13 if we are faithless,        he will remain faithful,       for he cannot disown himself.  (@DailyKeller) “The basic premise of religion –that if you try hard to be good, things will go well for you is wrong. Jesus lived perfectly yet suffered.” 1 – Fix your eyes on Jesus (vs. 8) 2 – Live by His powerful Word (vs. 9)3 – Motivated by others being Saved (vs. 10) 4 – Trusting in His promises; (vs. 11-13)  Sermon Resource Guide
