1 Timothy 6:20

Final Charge And Benediction

¹⁹ Treasuring up for themselves a good foundation for the future, that they may lay hold on the life which is life indeed. ²⁰ O Timothy! that which hath been entrusted, do thou guard, avoiding the profane pratings and oppositions of falsely named knowledge, - ²¹ Which, some professing, concerning the faith, have missed the mark! Favour be with you.
