2 Timothy 4 - Paul predicts our faltering "churches"

In 2 Timothy 4 we read the final preserved written words of the powerhouse Apostle Paul. A very personal & heartfelt account. A hint of heartbreak. But strong till the end. Wise council, simple instructions, direct teaching. Summed up effectively in the words of verse 2:

Preach the word! Be ready in season & out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering & teaching.
