2Ti 2:20 | MHM | STEP | v. 20 : Paul compares the church to a large house with many kinds of vessels—some made of gold and silver, others of wood and clay. Some are for honorable use, others for common use. In the same way, there are people in the church who honor God and others who do not. We should not be discouraged by the bad examples of some, but instead focus on being vessels of honor—pure and ready for the Master’s use (Romans 9:22-23 ).
