1 Timothy 6:12-16

Fight the good fight of faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and for which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

I direct you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who testified the good confession before Pontius Pilate,

that you keep the commandment without fault or reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

which He will bring about at the proper time—He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
