'Men' in the Bible

It was my desire, when I went on into Macedonia, that you might make a stop at Ephesus, to give orders to certain men not to put forward a different teaching,

With the knowledge that the law is made, not for the upright man, but for those who have no respect for law and order, for evil men and sinners, for the unholy and those who have no religion, for those who put their fathers or mothers to death, for takers of life,

For those who go after loose women, for those with unnatural desires, for those who take men prisoners, who make false statements and false oaths, and those who do any other things against the right teaching,

My desire is, first of all, that you will make requests and prayers and give praise for all men;

Whose desire is that all men may have salvation and come to the knowledge of what is true.

For there is one God and one peacemaker between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

It is my desire, then, that in every place men may give themselves to prayer, lifting up holy hands, without wrath or argument.

But if I am long in coming, this will make clear to you what behaviour is right for men in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and base of what is true.

Through the false ways of men whose words are untrue, whose hearts are burned as with a heated iron;

Who keep men from being married and from taking food which God made to be taken with praise by those who have faith and true knowledge.

And this is the purpose of all our work and our fighting, because our hope is in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, and specially of those who have faith.

Do not say sharp words to one who has authority in the church, but let your talk be as to a father, and to the younger men as to brothers:

The sins of some men are clearly seen, going before them to be judged; but with others, their sins go after them.

Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.

But those who have a desire for wealth are falling into danger, and are taken as in a net by a number of foolish and damaging desires, through which men are overtaken by death and destruction.
