1 Timotius 1:13-20
1:13 even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor, and an arrogant
1 man. But I was treated with mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief,
1:14 and our Lord’s grace was abundant, bringing faith and love in Christ Jesus.
2
1:15 This saying
3 is trustworthy and deserves full acceptance: “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” – and I am the worst of them!
4
1:16 But here is why I was treated with mercy: so that
5 in me as the worst,
6 Christ Jesus could demonstrate his utmost patience, as an example for those who are going to believe in him for eternal life.
1:17 Now to the eternal king,
7 immortal, invisible, the only
8 God, be honor and glory forever and ever!
9 Amen.
1:18 I put this charge 10 before you, Timothy my child, in keeping with the prophecies once spoken about you, 11 in order that with such encouragement 12 you may fight the good fight.
1:19 To do this 13 you must hold firmly to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck in regard to the faith.
1:20 Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I handed over to Satan 14 to be taught not to blaspheme.
