And exercise yourself so as to advance in piety.† 8°For the exercise of the body is somewhat useful. But piety is useful in all things, holding the promise of life, in the present and in the future.† 9°This is a faithful saying and worthy of full acceptance. 10°For this reason we labor and are maligned: because we hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, most especially of the faithful.† 11°Instruct and teach these things. 12°Let no one despise your youth, but be an example among the faithful in word, in behavior, in charity, in faith, in chastity.† 13°Until I arrive, attend to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.† 14°1556Do not be willing to neglect the grace that is within you, which was given to you through prophecy, with the imposition of the hands of the priesthood.† 15°Meditate on these things, so that your progress may be manifest to all. 16°Pay attention to yourself and to doctrine. Pursue these things. For in doing so, you will save both yourself and those who listen to you. <prev next> 1   T i m o t h y     4 Celledoor Bible cpdv-ebe v0.7.7 ©2009 Frederick Manligas Nacino.
