Unto Timothie my own sonne in the Faith: Grace, mercie, and peace from God our Father, and Iesus Christ our Lord.

Neither giue heed to fables, and endlesse genealogies, which minister questions, rather then edifying which is in faith: so doe.

Now the end of the commandement is charity, out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith vnfained.

And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant, with faith, & loue, which is in Christ Iesus.

Holding faith, and a good conscience, which some hauing put away, concerning faith, haue made shipwracke.

Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an Apostle (I speake the trueth in Christ, and lie not) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and veritie.

Notwithstanding she shall be saued in child-bearing, if they continue in faith and charitie, and holinesse, with sobrietie.

Holding the mysterie of the faith in a pure conscience.

For they that haue vsed the office of a Deacon well, purchase to themselues a good degree, and great boldnesse in the faith, which is in Christ Iesus.

Now the Spirit speaketh expresly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giuing heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of deuils:

If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Iesus Christ, nourished vp in the wordes of faith, and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.

Let no man despise thy youth, but be thou an example of the beleeuers, in word, in conuersation, in charitie, in spirit, in faith, in puritie.

But if any prouide not for his owne, & specially for those of his owne house, hee hath denied the faith, and is worse then an infidel.

Hauing damnation, because they haue cast off their first faith.

For the loue of money is the root of all euill, which while some coueted after, they haue erred from the faith, and pierced themselues through with many sorrowes.

But thou, O man of God, flie these things; and follow after righteousnesse, godlinesse, faith, loue, patience, meekenesse.

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternall life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Which some professing, haue erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.The first to Timothie was written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest citie of Phrygia Pacaciana.
