1Timothy:2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
I exhort therefore ,
that ,
first of all ,
supplications ,
prayers ,
intercessions ,
and giving of thanks ,
be made for all men ;
*
For kings ,
and for all that are in authority ;
that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty .
*
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour ;
*
Who will have all men to be saved ,
and to come unto the knowledge of the truth .
*
For there is one God ,
and one mediator between God and men ,
the man Christ Jesus ;
*
Who gave himself a ransom for all ,
to be testified in due time .
*
Whereunto I am ordained a preacher ,
and an apostle , (
I speak the truth in Christ ,
and lie not ;)
a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity .
*
I will therefore that men pray every where ,
lifting up holy hands ,
without wrath and doubting .
*
In like manner also ,
that women adorn themselves in modest apparel ,
with shamefacedness and sobriety ;
not with broided hair ,
or gold ,
or pearls ,
or costly array ;
*
But (
which becometh women professing godliness )
with good works .
*
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection .
*
But I suffer not a woman to teach ,
nor to usurp authority over the man ,
but to be in silence .
*
For Adam was first formed ,
then Eve .
*
And Adam was not deceived ,
but the woman being deceived was in the transgression .
*
Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing ,
if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety .
