The slang or profane word "2 Timothy 2:7" comes from a phrase used by Paul (Acts 16:4) to describe the condition of his disciple, Tim, who was being disciplined for not living up to expectations. Example Sentence Timothy's friends were saying he had become lax and was not putting in the effort that Paul hoped him to put in. They said, "You're no longer Timothy, but just another one of our disciples." This phrase is used as a metaphorical way to describe someone who has lost their direction or purpose.
