Far out gophgetter. If there is a false prophet in the midst, it is you. I'm not a sissy, so I'll come right out and say it.
If we deny him, he will also deny us. Deny him what? Deny us what?
Suffering and Reigning is the context.
If we do not suffer for him, he will deny us reigning with him. The only time any Christian reigns is during the millennium. 2 Timothy 2:15 - Read it and Eat it.
In Grace
Luke
