Second letter to Timothy 2:3

[Those who want to follow Jesus will encounter resistance. Paul illustrates this by highlighting the characteristics of three professions: a soldier in battle does not lose concentration, an athlete must follow the rules to win, and a farmer must work hard and be patient to get a harvest. These were familiar images to Timothy and the congregation in Ephesus, as Roman soldiers were present in every city, the Olympic Games in southern Greece were well known, and many people worked in agriculture. These three examples also recur in the letter to Corinth, which was written from Ephesus, see 1 Cor. 9:7, 24.]
Share suffering with others as a good (noble) soldier for the Anointed One (Messiah, Christ) Jesus. [Some of Paul's hardships are listed in 2 Cor. 11:23-29.]
