1 Timothy

Geneva: Nowe the Spirit speaketh euidently, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, and shall giue heede vnto spirits of errour, and doctrines of deuils,

Geneva: Which speake lies through hypocrisie, & haue their cosciences burned with an hote yron,

Geneva: Forbidding to marrie, and commanding to absteine from meates which God hath created to be receiued with giuing thankes of them which beleeue and knowe the trueth.

Geneva: For euery creature of God is good, and nothing ought to be refused, if it be receiued with thankesgiuing.

Geneva: For it is sanctified by the worde of God, and prayer.

Geneva: If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Iesus Christ, which hast bene nourished vp in the wordes of faith, and of good doctrine, which thou hast continually followed.

Geneva: But cast away prophane, and olde wiues fables, and exercise thy selfe vnto godlinesse.

Geneva: For bodily exercise profiteth litle: but godlinesse is profitable vnto all things, which hath the promes of the life present, and of that that is to come.

Geneva: This is a true saying, and by all meanes worthie to be receiued.

Geneva: For therefore we labour and are rebuked, because we trust in the liuing God, which is the Sauiour of all men, specially of those that beleeue.

Geneva: These things warne and teache.

Geneva: Let no man despise thy youth, but be vnto them that beleeue, an ensample, in worde, in conuersation, in loue, in spirit, in faith, and in purenesse.

Geneva: Till I come, giue attendance to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.

Geneva: Despise not the gift that is in thee, which was giuen thee by prophecie with the laying on of the hands of the companie of the Eldership.

Geneva: These things exercise, and giue thy selfe vnto them, that it may be seene howe thou profitest among all men.

Geneva: Take heede vnto thy selfe, and vnto learning: continue therein: for in doing this thou shalt both saue thy selfe, & them that heare thee.
