affecting to be doctors of the law, though they underhand neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

But we know that the law is good if a man use it according to its institution;

knowing this, that the law is not made for the just man, but for the lawless and disorderly, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for men-slayers,

of which I am ordained a preacher and apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, I lie not,) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

Lay hands hastily on no man, nor share another's sins: keep thyself pure;

Strain every nerve in the noble conflict of faith, lay fast hold on eternal life, unto which also thou hast been called, and hast confessed the good confession before many witnesses.

laying up treasure for themselves a noble foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
