1 Timothy 6:14-21
14that you keep the commandment without 1fault or reproach until the 2appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 3bring about at 4the proper time--He who is 5the blessed and 6only Sovereign, 7the King of 8kings and 9Lord of 10lords, 1611who alone possesses immortality and 12dwells in unapproachable light, 13whom 14no one has seen or can see. 15To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
17Instruct those who are rich in 16this present world 17not to be conceited or to 18set their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, 19who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. 18Instruct them to do good, to be rich in 20good 21works, 22to be generous and ready to share, 1923storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may 24take hold of that which is truly life.
2025Timothy, protect 26what has been entrusted to you, avoiding 27worldly, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge”-- 21which some have professed and thereby have 28gone astray 29from 30the faith.
31Grace be with you.
