1 Timothy 1:3-11

3AsG2531 I urgedG3870 youG4771 on my departureG4198 toG1519 MacedoniaG3109, you should stay onG4357 atG1722 EphesusG2181 toG2443 instructG3853 certain menG5100 notG3361 to teach false doctrinesG2085 4or devote themselvesG4337 to mythsG3454 andG2532 endlessG562 genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 promoteG3930 speculationG2214 ratherG3123 thanG2228 the stewardshipG3622 of God’sG2316 work, whichG3588 is byG1722 faithG4102.1

TheG3588 goalG5056 ofG3588 our instructionG3852 isG1510 the loveG26 that comes fromG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588, a clearG18 conscienceG4893, andG2532 a sincereG505 faithG4102. 6SomeG5100 have strayedG795 fromG3739 these ways and turned asideG1624 toG1519 empty talkG3150. 7They wantG2309 to beG1510 teachers of the lawG3547, but they do not understandG3539G3361G3383 whatG3739 they are sayingG3004 or that whichG5101 they so confidently assertG1226.

8NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 theG3588 lawG3551 is goodG2570, ifG1437 oneG5100 usesG5530 itG846 legitimatelyG3545. 9We realizeG1492 thatG3754 lawG3551 is not enactedG3756G2749 for the righteousG1342, butG1161 for the lawlessG459 andG2532 rebelliousG506, for the ungodlyG765 andG2532 sinfulG268, for the unholyG462 andG2532 profaneG952, for killers of fatherG3964 or motherG3389, for murderersG409, 10for the sexually immoralG4205, for homosexualsG733, for slave tradersG4052 and liarsG5583 and perjurersG1965, andG2532 forG1487 anyoneG5100 elseG2087 who is averse toG480 soundG5198 teachingG1319 11that agrees withG2596 theG3588 gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of theG3588 blessedG3107 GodG2316, with whichG3739 IG1473 have been entrustedG4100.
