'Things' in the Bible

who must have their mouths stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which ought not to be taught for the sake of base gain.

All things are pure to the pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.

But do thou speak the things that become sound teaching;

that the elder women in like manner be in deportment as becoming those who have to say to sacred things, not slanderers, not enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is right;

in all things affording thyself as a pattern of good works; in teaching uncorruptedness, gravity,

not robbing their masters, but shewing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the teaching which is of our Saviour God in all things.

teaching us that, having denied impiety and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, and justly, and piously in the present course of things,

These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise thee.

The word is faithful, and I desire that thou insist strenuously on these things, that they who have believed God may take care to pay diligent attention to good works. These things are good and profitable to men.
