• “the good deposit keep.” If on the the one hand we have a “deposit” (all our hopes of glory) with Christ, He on the other hand entrusts His servants with a deposit. The question then is, What is this good deposit? It cannot be eternal life, or salvation; for the keeping of this belongs to Christ Himself, and hence it is probably the truth —the truth as committed to the stewardship of His servants— to be maintained by them in all fidelity while serving in the prospect of that day. (Compare 1 Tim. 6:13-14.) (“Exposition of 2 Timothy: 2 Timothy 1:12-18” by E. Dennett)
• {Keep by the Holy Ghost} We are too often occupied with the sense of our own feebleness, instead of with the power possessed through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. (“Exposition of 2 Timothy: 2 Timothy 1:12-18” by E. Dennett)
• He is to keep, by the power of the Holy Spirit, the substance of the truth, that which has been given us as a treasure-the deposit of divine truth and riches, which has been given us as our portion here below. (“2 Timothy 1” by J.N. Darby)

(“2 Timothy 1:12-18”)
• if He set us for the defense of the truth in a day of difficulty, He has given us a power that is equal to all the demands that can be made upon us. We are too often occupied with the sense of our own feebleness, instead of with the power possessed through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. (“2 Timothy 1:12-18”)
