1 Timothy 6:11-16
11But 1flee from these things, you 2man of God, and pursue righteousness, godliness, 3faith, 4love, 5perseverance and gentleness. 126Fight the good fight of 7faith; 8take hold of the eternal life 9to which you were called, and you made the good 10confession in the presence of 11many witnesses. 1312I charge you in the presence of God, who 13gives life to all things, and of 14Christ Jesus, who testified the 15good confession 16before Pontius Pilate, 14that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the 17appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 18bring about at 19the proper time--He who is 20the blessed and 21only Sovereign, 22the King of 23kings and 24Lord of 25lords, 1626who alone possesses immortality and 27dwells in unapproachable light, 28whom no man has seen or can see. 29To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
