1 Timothy 1:9-20

9realizing the fact that 1law is not made for a righteous person but for those who are lawless and 2rebellious, for the 3ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and 4worldly, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10for the 5 6sexually immoral, 7homosexuals, 8 9slave traders, 10liars, 11perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to 12sound teaching, 11according to 13the glorious gospel of 14the blessed God, with which I have been 15entrusted.

12I thank 16Christ Jesus our Lord, who has 17strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, 18putting me into service, 13even though I was previously a blasphemer and a 19persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was 20shown mercy because 21I acted ignorantly in unbelief; 14and the 22grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the 23faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus. 15 24It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that 25Christ Jesus came into the world to 26save sinners, among whom 27I am foremost. 16Yet for this reason I 28found mercy, so that in me as the foremost sinner Jesus Christ might 29demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those 30who would believe in Him for eternal life. 17Now to the 31King 32eternal, 33immortal, 34invisible, the 35only God, 36be honor and glory 37forever and ever. Amen.

18This 38command I entrust to you, Timothy, 39my 40son, in accordance with the 41prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you 42fight the good fight, 19keeping 43faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to 44 45their faith. 20 46Among these are 47Hymenaeus and 48Alexander, whom I have 49handed over to Satan, so that they will be 50taught not to blaspheme.
