In 2 Timothy 2:13, isn't Paul speaking about unbelievers?
2 Timothy 2:13
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Because Paul says "we," which includes himself, 2 Timothy 2:13 cannot refer to an unbeliever.
He is talking about believers who stop believing the Lord's words as given through Paul, the apostle in this dispensation of grace. Even if they choose to, the Lord remains faithful because they are members of His body. Therefore, He cannot deny Himself.
Ephesians 5:30
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
He cannot deny Himself!
Hopefully this helps...Maranatha!
