2 Timothy 4:1-22
I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. read more |

Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. |
