1 Timothy 1:11

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

“He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”

I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

For, behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but Yahweh will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.

Yahweh passed by before him, and proclaimed, “Yahweh! Yahweh, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth,

But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope;

We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:

Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.

For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.

who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,

Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.

The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.

Make the heart of this people fat. Make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed.”

But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.

Jesus answered him, “Most certainly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”

to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,

But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.

He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

God said, “Let’s make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.

“Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose confidence is in Yahweh.

He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.

But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.

What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”

in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience.

not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.

and through him to reconcile all things to himself by him, whether things on the earth or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.

because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”

Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!

But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory,

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.

but to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcised, even as Peter with the Good News for the circumcised—

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.

far above all rule, authority, power, dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.

I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,

These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and those who are with him are called chosen and faithful.”

in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.

which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords.

For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.

if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you,

but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;

Blessed are you, Yahweh. Teach me your statutes.

I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.

But he stayed quiet, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?”

“Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”

but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest of the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.

For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward. But if not of my own will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.

Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who are dying,

seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

For we don’t stretch ourselves too much, as though we didn’t reach to you. For we came even as far as to you with the Good News of Christ,

The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie.

to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved,

to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ.

that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus;

to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,

Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,

But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak: not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.

I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,

For this I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.

Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,

who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
