Fight the Good Fight

11 But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, [and] gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called [when you made] the good confession before many witnesses.

13 I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who {made} the good confession in His testimony before Pontius Pilate: 14 Keep [this] commandment without stain [or] reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 which the blessed and only Sovereign [One]—the King of kings and Lord of lords—will bring about in His own time. 16 [He] alone is immortal [and] dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen [Him], nor can [anyone] see [Him]. To [Him be] honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
