Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, the offspring of David, as preached in my gospel. – 2 Timothy 2:8
In 2 Timothy 2, we can see some characteristics of a good soldier in the Army of God. We must pray, rely on God’s power, realize that suffering will come, and seek to follow his commands. In all this, we remember the “why”: remember Jesus Christ. We remember what Jesus has done for us. We remember that he is the true King, our savior, and our only hope. Reject passivity and live an active life for Christ!
