1 Timothy Chapter 6|#11 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.#22 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.|+#23 If anyone teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to reverence towards God;#24 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, of which comes envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,#25 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is reverence towards God: From such withdraw yourself.#26 But reverence towards God with contentment is great gain.#27 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.#28 And having food and garment let us be therewith content.#29 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.#210 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.|*211 But you, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, reverence towards God, faith, love, patience, meekness.#212 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, unto which you are also called, and have professed a good profession before many witnesses.#213 I give you charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;#214 That you keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:#215 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;#216 Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no one can approach to; whom no one has seen, nor can see: To whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.|*217 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy;#218 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;#219 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.|*220 O Timothy, keep which is committed to your trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:|*221 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
