1 Timothy 4:7
| ← 1 Timothy 4:6 | 1 Timothy 4:7 (KJV) | 1 Timothy 4:8 → |
|---|---|---|
If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
|
But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
|
For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
