1 Timothy 1 : 1 (HCSB)
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus, our hope:
1 Timothy 1 : 2 (HCSB)
To Timothy, my true child in the faith. Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
1 Timothy 1 : 3 (HCSB)
As I urged you when I went to Macedonia, remain in Ephesus so that you may command certain people not to teach other doctrine
1 Timothy 1 : 4 (HCSB)
or to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies. These promote empty speculations rather than God's plan, which operates by faith.
1 Timothy 1 : 5 (HCSB)
Now the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith.
1 Timothy 1 : 6 (HCSB)
Some have deviated from these and turned aside to fruitless discussion.
1 Timothy 1 : 7 (HCSB)
They want to be teachers of the law, although they don't understand what they are saying or what they are insisting on.
1 Timothy 1 : 8 (HCSB)
Now we know that the law is good, provided one uses it legitimately.
1 Timothy 1 : 9 (HCSB)
We know that the law is not meant for a righteous person, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers and mothers, for murderers,
1 Timothy 1 : 10 (HCSB)
for the sexually immoral and homosexuals, for kidnappers, liars, perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to the sound teaching
1 Timothy 1 : 11 (HCSB)
based on the glorious gospel of the blessed God that was entrusted to me.
1 Timothy 1 : 12 (HCSB)
I give thanks to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, appointing me to the ministry--
1 Timothy 1 : 13 (HCSB)
one who was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an arrogant man. Since it was out of ignorance that I had acted in unbelief, I received mercy,
1 Timothy 1 : 14 (HCSB)
and the grace of our Lord overflowed, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
1 Timothy 1 : 15 (HCSB)
This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance: "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners"-- and I am the worst of them.
1 Timothy 1 : 16 (HCSB)
But I received mercy because of this, so that in me, the worst *of them , Christ Jesus might demonstrate the utmost patience as an example to those who would believe in Him for eternal life.
1 Timothy 1 : 17 (HCSB)
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
1 Timothy 1 : 18 (HCSB)
Timothy, my child, I am giving you this instruction in keeping with the prophecies previously made about you, so that by them you may strongly engage in battle,
1 Timothy 1 : 19 (HCSB)
having faith and a good conscience. Some have rejected these and have suffered the shipwreck of their faith.
1 Timothy 1 : 20 (HCSB)
Hymenaeus and Alexander are among them, and I have delivered them to Satan, so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
