Book 54 : 1 TIMOTHY - Chapter 006
006:001
And they that have believing masters, let them not despise
them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service,
because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the
benefit. These things teach and exhort
006:002
If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome
words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the
doctrine which is according to godliness
006:003
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and
strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil
surmisings
006:004
Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of
the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such
withdraw thyself
006:005
But godliness with contentment is great gain
006:006
For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we
can carry nothing out
006:007
And having food and raiment let us be therewith content
006:008
But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare,
and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in
destruction and perdition
006:009
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while
some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and
pierced themselves through with many sorrows
006:010
But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after
righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness
006:011
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life,
whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good
profession before many witnesses
006:012
I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all
things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate
witnessed a good confession
006:013
That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable,
until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ
006:014
Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only
Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords
006:015
Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man
can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom
be honour and power everlasting. Amen
006:016
Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not
highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living
God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy
006:017
That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to
distribute, willing to communicate
006:018
Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against
the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life
006:019
O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding
profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely
so called
006:020
Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace
be with thee. Amen.
