  1. 2 Timothy 3:17 That is, a messenger of God (the phrase echoes a common Old Testament expression)

15 For if their rejection means (A)the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? 16 (B)If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

17 But if (C)some of the branches were broken off, and you, (D)although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root[a] of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you. 19 Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you (E)stand fast through faith. So (F)do not become proud, but (G)fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, (H)provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise (I)you too will be cut off. 23 And (J)even they, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again.
