The parts of a shattered ship.

Destruction. To make a shipwreck concerning faith, is to apostatize from the love, profession and dpractice of divine truth which had been embraced.

To destroy by running ashore or on ricks or sand banks. How many vessels are annually shipwrecked on the Bahama rocks!

To suffer the perils of being cast away; to be cast ashore with the loss of the ship. The shipwrecked mariners were saved.
