neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith;'so do I now .

Till I come, give heed to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.

Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee.

In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid.
