1 Timothy 6:13-16

13 1I charge you in the presence of God, who 2gives life to all things, and of 3Christ Jesus, who testified the 4good confession 5before Pontius Pilate, 14that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the 6appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 7bring about at 8the proper time--He who is 9the blessed and 10only Sovereign, 11the King of 12kings and 13Lord of 14lords, 16 15who alone possesses immortality and 16dwells in unapproachable light, 17whom no man has seen or can see. 18To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
