1 Timothy 1
- Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope; 🔗
- Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord. 🔗
- As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 🔗
- Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 🔗
- Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: 🔗
- From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 🔗
- Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. 🔗
- But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; 🔗
- Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 🔗
- For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 🔗
- According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. 🔗
- And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; 🔗
- Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 🔗
- And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 🔗
- This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 🔗
- Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. 🔗
- Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 🔗
- This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; 🔗
- Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: 🔗
- Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme. 🔗
