Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of
season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but
according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they
will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away
from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in
all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill
your ministry.
(2nd Timothy 4:2-5--New King James Version) |
