1Timothy 3




mkjv@1Timothy:3:1 @ Faithful [is] the word: If anyone reaches out to overseership, he desires a good work.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:2 @ Then it behooves the overseer to be without reproach, husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, well-ordered, hospitable, apt at teaching,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:3 @ not a drunkard, not contentious, not greedy of ill gain, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:4 @ ruling his own house well, having children in subjection with all honor.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:5 @ (For if a man does not know to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

mkjv@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice, lest being puffed up he may fall into the condemnation of the Devil.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:7 @ But he must also have a good report from those on the outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the Devil.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:8 @ Likewise the deacons [are to be] reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of ill gain,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:9 @ having the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:10 @ And let these also first be tested, then let them minister without reproach.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:11 @ Even so [their] wives are to [be] reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling [their] children and households well.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:13 @ For they having served well gain a good grade for themselves, and much boldness in the faith, those in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I write these things to you, hoping to come to you shortly.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:15 @ But if I should delay, that you may know how you ought to behave in the house of God, which is [the] church of the living God, [the] pillar and foundation of the truth.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:16 @ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among nations, believed on in [the] world, and received up into glory.
