We know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

understanding this, how that the law is not given unto a righteous man, but unto the unrighteous and disobedient, to the ungodly and to sinners, to unholy and unclean, to murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, to manslayers

I exhort therefore that above all things, prayers, supplications, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be had for all men:

which will have all men saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and man, which is the man Christ Jesus,

which gave himself a ransom for all men, that it should be testified at his time;

I will, therefore, that the men pray every where, lifting up pure hands without wrath, or doubting.

I suffer not a woman to teach, neither to have authority over the man: but for to be in silence.

This is a true saying: If a man covet the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.

For if a man cannot rule his own house, how shall he care for the congregation of God?

For therefore we labour and suffer rebuke, because we believe in the living God, which is the saviour of all men: but specially of those that believe.

Let no man despise thy youth; but be unto them that believe, an example: in word, in conversation, in love, in spirit, in faith and in pureness.

Rebuke not an elder: but exhort him as a father, and the younger men as brethren,

Let no widow be chosen under sixty years old, and such a one as was the wife of one man,

And if any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them minister unto them, and let not the congregation be charged: that it may have sufficient for them that are widows indeed.

Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: Keep thyself pure.

Some men's sins are open beforehand and go before unto judgement: some men's sins follow after.

If any man teach otherwise, and is not content with the wholesome words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the doctrine of godliness,

and vain disputations of men with corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, which think that lucre is godliness. From such, separate thyself.

Godliness is great riches, if a man be content with that he hath.

They that will be rich, fall into temptation and snares, and into many foolish and noisome lusts, which drown men in perdition and destruction.

But thou, which art the man of God, flee such things. Follow righteousness, godliness, love, patience, and meekness.

which only hath immortality, and dwelleth in light that no man can attain, whom never man saw, neither can see: unto whom be honour and rule everlasting. Amen.
