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 for which you made the good 10confession in the presence of 11many witnesses. 1312I direct 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 17fault or reproach until the 18appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 19bring about at 20the proper time--He who is 21the blessed and 22only Sovereign, 23the King of 24kings and 25Lord of 26lords, 1627who alone possesses immortality and 28dwells in unapproachable light, 29whom 30no one has seen or can see. 31To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
