11. I was chosen to tell people that message as an apostle and teacher.
12. And I suffer now because of that work. But I am not ashamed, because I know the one I have put my trust in. And I am sure that he is able to protect what I have put into his care until that Day.
13. What you heard me teach is an example of what you should teach. Follow that model of right teaching with the faith and love we have in Christ Jesus.
14. This teaching is a treasure that you have been trusted with. Protect it with the help of the Holy Spirit, who lives inside us.
