    • 2:12

      if we go on enduring: This expression echoes Jesus’ promise: “The one who has endured to the end will be saved.” (See study note on Mt 24:13.) Paul and his dear friend Timothy had the glorious hope of ruling with Christ. (Lu 22:28-30) Here Paul stresses that endurance is key to attaining such a hope. He never felt that his hope was guaranteed simply because he was a spirit-anointed Christian. (See study note on Php 3:14.) He knew of anointed Christians who had turned away from the faith. (Php 3:18) However, Paul was confident that he would prove faithful until death.​—2Ti 4:6-8.
