About This Video
In this episode, Shawn and Delaney read through 2 Timothy 3, a chapter often cited to describe the “last days.” They talk about Paul’s warnings of people becoming lovers of self, money, and pleasure, and how every generation thinks it’s living in the worst of times. They reflect on how human nature hasn’t changed, and how cultural context plays into Paul’s descriptions of godlessness, opposition to truth, and persecution.
The conversation then shifts to one of the most quoted verses in the Bible: “All scripture is God-breathed.” Shawn and Delaney wrestle with what Paul meant by “scripture,” pointing out that in Timothy’s time it clearly meant the Old Testament. They unpack how Paul may have also been extending that definition to his own inspired writings, and what it means for us today. Ultimately, they emphasize that inspiration doesn’t make every verse a directive to modern readers, but rather a source of principles pointing to Christ.
