jub - 1Timothy:3-4

jub@1Timothy:3:1 @ The Word is faithful, If anyone desires the office of a bishop [to be a pastor or elder in the church], he desires a difficult ministry.

jub@1Timothy:3:2 @ It is expedient, therefore, that the bishop be blameless, the husband of [only] one wife, vigilant, temperate, of [worldly] affections mortified, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

jub@1Timothy:3:3 @ not given to wine, not hurtful, not greedy of dishonest gain, but gentle, not contentious, not covetous;

jub@1Timothy:3:4 @ one that rules well his own house, having his children in subjection with all integrity;

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

jub@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice lest, being puffed up, he fall into judgment of the devil.

jub@1Timothy:3:7 @ Moreover he must have a good report of those who are outside lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

jub@1Timothy:3:8 @ Likewise the deacons [must be] honest, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of dishonest gain;

jub@1Timothy:3:9 @ holding the mystery of the faith [together] with a pure conscience.

jub@1Timothy:3:10 @ And let these also first be proved; then let them minister, if they are blameless.

jub@1Timothy:3:11 @ The wives likewise [are to be] honest, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

jub@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let the deacons be the husbands of [only] one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

jub@1Timothy:3:13 @ For those that minister well purchase to themselves a good degree and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

jub@1Timothy:3:14 @ These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly

jub@1Timothy:3:15 @ But if I tarry long, that thou may know how it is expedient to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and base of the truth.

jub@1Timothy:3:16 @ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.:

jub@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, listening to spirits of error and doctrines of demons;

jub@1Timothy:4:2 @ that in hypocrisy shall speak lies; having their conscience seared as with a hot iron;

jub@1Timothy:4:3 @ they shall forbid to marry and shall command [men] to abstain from foods, which God has created to be received with thanksgiving by those who are faithful and have known the truth.

jub@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything that God created [is] good, and nothing [is] to be refused, if it is received with thanksgiving,

jub@1Timothy:4:5 @ for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

jub@1Timothy:4:6 @ If thou put these things before the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, unto which thou hast attained.

jub@1Timothy:4:7 @ But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself [rather] unto godliness.

jub@1Timothy:4:8 @ For bodily exercise profits [a] little, but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.

jub@1Timothy:4:9 @ The Word [is] faithful and worthy of acceptation by all.

jub@1Timothy:4:10 @ For this we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

jub@1Timothy:4:11 @ Command and teach this.

jub@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no man despise thy youth, but be thou an example of the faithful in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

jub@1Timothy:4:13 @ Until I come, occupy thyself reading, exhorting, teaching.

jub@1Timothy:4:14 @ Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which is given unto thee to prophesy, through the laying on of the hands of the elders.

jub@1Timothy:4:15 @ Occupy thyself in these things [with care], for in this is [everything], that thy profiting may be manifest unto all.

jub@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed unto thyself and unto the doctrine; be diligent in this, for in doing so thou shalt both save thyself and those that hear thee.:

jub@1Timothy:5:1 @ Rebuke not an elder, but intreat [him] as a father, [and] the younger men as brethren,
