The Bible, King James version, Book 54: 1 Timothy. Unknown

      54:001:001 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;

      54:001:002 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

      54:001:003 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,

      54:001:004 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.

      54:001:005 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

      54:001:006 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;

      54:001:007 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

      54:001:009 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,

      54:001:010 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;

      54:001:011 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

      54:001:012 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

      54:001:013 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

      54:001:014 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

      54:001:019 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

      54:001:020 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

      54:002:002 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

      54:002:003 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

      54:002:004 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

      54:002:005 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

      54:002:006 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
