10But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, 11persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution

II Timothy 3:10-16

13But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

II Timothy 3:10-16

16All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Context of II Timothy 3:10-16

“Timothy has been able to see deeper in Paul’s core values lived in his manner of life, expressed in his purpose and fed from and feeding his faith.”

“Core values are the attitudes, character and expectations that shape an individual or the culture of an organization. These are what we really believe are important. They come up again and again because they are foundational. They call us, control us and confirm us. They define who we really are and how we will really live.”

Some are constants of an organization.

Some are constants of a leader.

Strategies change but…Core values are constant
