But do you, on your part, speak what becomes sound teaching; that the older men be self-controlled, serious and sober-minded, sound in faith, in love, in patience; that older women likewise be reverent in demeanor, not slanderers or slaves to much wine, but teachers of what is right. read more.
They should train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be sober-minded, chaste, workers at home, kind and submissive to their husbands, in order that God's message be not maligned.

"For God's grace has shined forth bringing salvation to all men And schooling us to renounce impiety and evil passions, And to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; While we look for the blessed hope and epiphany of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity, and to purify unto himself a people zealous of good works." Thus speak, exhort, reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

But God be thanked that you who were once the slaves of sin have obeyed from your hearts that type of teaching to which you were appointed; and being set free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness??19 I speak in these homely figures because of the weakness of your fleshly nature??ust as you once surrendered your faculties into slavery to impurity and to all lawlessness, so now you must surrender your faculties into slavery to righteousness, unto deeds of holiness. For when you were the slaves of sin, you were under no subjection to righteousness. read more.

Now as to the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you. You yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night. While men are saying "Peace and safety," then, like birth-pangs upon a woman with child, destruction will come upon them suddenly. In no wise will they escape. read more.
But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that "the Day" should come upon you like a bandit. For you are all sons of light, and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness.

But let us who are of the day be self-controlled, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.


This is a faithful saying, "If any man is seeking the office of a minister he is aspiring to a noble task." The minister should be a man of blameless character; he should be husband of but one wife; he should live a sober, self-restrained, orderly life; he should be hospitable, skilled in teaching; no drinker or brawler; but forbearing, peaceable, and no money-lover; read more.
he should be a man who rules his own household well, and keeps his children ever under control and thoroughly well behaved. For if a man does not know how to rule his own household, how shall he take charge of a church of God? He must not be a recent convert, lest he be blinded with pride, and incur the doom of the devil. He should also have a good reputation among outsiders, lest he fall into reproach, and into a snare of the devil. Deacons, likewise, must be serious, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of gain, holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. They should first be tested, and after that, if they are found irreproachable, let them serve as deacons. Deaconesses likewise must be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.

Now we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to seek our own pleasure. Let each one of us try to make his neighbor happy for his good, unto his upbuilding.

Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father. read more.

As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.
