God gave use a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline, not that of timidity.  Do not be ashamed of Jesus, but testify and join the suffering for the gospel through the power of God for God's purpose and grace.        

2 Timothy 2:

Always choose reliable people that can stand with you and replicate the faith in Jesus. Be a soldier and an athlete for God in order to please the commanding officer and win by the rules respectively. God is against quarrelling with words because it does not benefit the listener. Show yourself as an approved workman of God and avoid godless people, like some who have turned away from the faith and said that the resurrection has already taken place.  Reject the desires of your youth and pursue righteousness. Stay away from quarrels, be kind to all, be able to teach, and do not be resentful.    
 

2 Timothy 3:

The last days will be filled with Godlessness where people will begin to love themselves, love money, disobeying parents, being boastful, and enjoy slander.  They will also be haters of what good, lovers of pleasure (money, clothes, & sex) instead of God, lack self-control, and will be brutal and treacherous.  It will appear that they have a kind of godliness, but ignore these kind of people because they are the ones who are parasites on weak women and always fail to acknowledge God's truth.  So success is actually being content with your daily bread (what God has given you for self and family) in order to help spread the good news of Jesus and not spending all your time and energy chasing money, titles, and power.  Every person that follows Christ will be persecuted in this evil world, but the evil guys will get worst in deceiving others and each other.  God's scripture are useful for teaching, critiquing, correcting, and training in righteousness so that we are prepared for the good works of God.
