1 Timothy 6: 11 - 16
|
| 11
|
But as for you, man of God, shun all this; aim at righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.
|
| 12
|
Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
|
| 13
|
In the presence of God who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession,
|
| 14
|
I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;
|
| 15
|
and this will be made manifest at the proper time by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,
|
| 16
|
who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
