2 TIMOTHY 2:25 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;”
correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, — The methodology: paideuō (correct) opponents with praupatheia (gentleness). Correction aims at metanoia (repentance) and epignōsis (experiential knowledge) of truth—transformation rather than victory.
