1 Timothy 1

Misleadings in Doctrine and Living

1

Paulg3972,  aan apostleg652 of  bChristg5547 Jesusg2424  caccordingg2596 to the commandmentg2003 of  cGodg2316 our Saviorg4990, and of  bChristg5547 Jesusg2424, who is our  dhopeg1680,

2

To  aTimothyg5095,  amy trueg1103 childg5043 in the faithg4102:  bGraceg5485, mercyg1656 and peaceg1515 from Godg2316 the Fatherg3962 and  cChristg5547 Jesusg2424 our Lordg2962.

3

As I urgedg3870 you  1upon my departureg4198 for  aMacedoniag3109,  2remaing4357 on at  bEphesusg2181 sog2443 that you may instructg3853 certaing5100 meng5100 not to  cteachg2085 strangeg2085 doctrinesg2085,

4

norg3366 to  1payg4337 attentiong4337 to  amythsg3454 and endlessg562  bgenealogiesg1076, whichg3748 giveg3930 riseg3930 to mere  cspeculationg1567b ratherg3123 thang2228  dfurthering  2the administrationg3622 of Godg2316 which is by faithg4102.

5

But the goalg5056 of our  1 ainstructiong3852 is loveg26  bfrom a pureg2513 heartg2588 and a  cgoodg18 conscienceg4893 and a sincereg505  dfaithg4102.

6

For someg5100 meng5100, strayingg795 from theseg3739 thingsg3739, have turnedg1624 asideg1624 to  afruitlessg3150 discussiong3150,

7

 awantingg2309 to be  bteachersg3547 of the Lawg3547, even though they do not understandg3539 eitherg3383 whatg3739 they are sayingg3004 org3383 the matters aboutg4012 whichg5101 they makeg1226 confidentg1226 assertionsg1226.

8

But we knowg3609a that  athe Lawg3551 is goodg2570, ifg1437 oneg5100 usesg5530 it lawfullyg3545,

9

realizingg3609a the factg3778 that  alawg3551 is not madeg2749 for a righteousg1342 persong1342, but for those who are lawlessg459 and  brebelliousg506, for the  cungodlyg765 and sinnersg268, for the unholyg462 and  dprofaneg952, for those who killg3970ag3389 their fathersg3970a org2532 mothersg3389, for murderersg409

10

 1and  2 aimmoralg4205 meng4205  1and  bhomosexualsg733a  1and  ckidnappersg405  1and  dliarsg5583  1and  eperjurersg1965, and whateverg1487g5100 elseg2087 is contraryg480 to  fsoundg5198 teachingg1319,

11

accordingg2596 to  athe gloriousg1391 gospelg2098 of  bthe blessedg3107 Godg2316, with whichg3739 I have been  centrustedg4100.

12

I thankg5485  aChristg5547 Jesusg2424 our Lordg2962, who has  bstrengthenedg1743 me, becauseg3754 He consideredg2233 me faithfulg4103,  cputtingg5087 me into serviceg1248,

13

even though I was formerlyg4387 a blasphemerg989 and a  apersecutorg1376 and a violentg5197 aggressorg5197. Yetg235 I was  bshowng1653 mercyg1653 becauseg3754  cI actedg4160 ignorantlyg50 in unbeliefg570;

14

and the  agraceg5485 of our Lordg2962 was moreg5250 thang5250 abundantg5250, with the  bfaithg4102 and loveg26 which are found in Christg5547 Jesusg2424.

15

 aIt is a trustworthyg4103 statementg3056, deservingg514 fullg3956 acceptanceg594, that  bChristg5547 Jesusg2424 cameg2064 into the worldg2889 to  csaveg4982 sinnersg268, among whomg3739  dI amg1510 foremostg4413 of all.

16

Yetg235 for thisg3778 reasong1223 I  afoundg1653 mercyg1653, sog2443 that in me as the foremostg4413, Jesusg2424 Christg5547 might  bdemonstrateg1731 His perfectg537a patienceg3115 as an exampleg5296 for thoseg3588  1who wouldg3195 believeg4100 in Him for eternalg166 lifeg2222.

17

Nowg1161 to the  aKingg935  1eternalg165,  bimmortalg862a,  cinvisibleg517, the  donlyg3441 Godg2316,  ebe honorg5092 and gloryg1391  2foreverg165 and everg165. Ameng281.

18

Thisg3778  acommandg3852 I entrustg3908 to you, Timothyg5095,  bmy  1song5043, in accordanceg2596 with the  cpropheciesg4394 previouslyg4254 madeg4254 concerningg1909 you, that by them you  dfightg4754 the goodg2570 fightg4752,

19

keepingg2192  afaithg4102 and a goodg18 conscienceg4893, whichg3739 someg5100 have rejectedg683 and sufferedg3489 shipwreckg3489 in regardg4012 to  1 btheir faithg4102.

20

 1Among theseg3739 are  aHymenaeusg5211 and  bAlexanderg223, whomg3739 I have  chandedg3860 overg3860 to Satang4567, sog2443 that they will be  dtaughtg3811 not to blasphemeg987.
