1 Timothy 6:2-10 - False Teachers And True Contentment
2 And let them having faithful masters not despise, for they are brethren; but rather let them serve, because they are faithful and dearly beloved, they having mutually received of the beneficence. These things teach and beseech. 3 If any teach otherwise, and come not up to the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine according to devotion; 4 He has been proud, knowing nothing, but sick about questions and disputes of words, of which is envy, strife, slanders, evil conjectures, 5 Unprofitable occupations of men corrupted in mind, and deprived of the truth, thinking gain to be devotion: be separated from such. 6 But devotion with contentment is great gain.
7 For we brought nothing into the world, it is manifest that neither are we able to carry anything out. 8 And having sustenance and covering, with these let us be contented.
9 And they wishing to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many eager desires, unwise and hurtful, which sink men into ruin and perdition. 10 For the root of all evils is the love of money: which some striving for, have been led astray from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many pains.
