1 Timothy 6:12 in Context — 1 Timothy 6
10 Pois o amor ao dinheiro é raiz de todos os tipos de males. Alguns o cobiçam, e então se desviaram da fé, e perfuraram a si mesmos com muitas dores.
11 Porém tu, homem de Deus, foge dessas coisas. Segue a justiça, a devoção divina, a fé, o amor, a paciência, a mansidão.
12 Que lutes a boa luta da fé; agarra a vida eterna para a qual também foste chamado, e confessaste a boa confissão diante de muitas testemunhas.
13 Mando-te diante de Deus, que dá vida a todas as coisas, e de Cristo Jesus, que diante de Pôncio Pilatos testemunhou a boa confissão,
14 que guardes este mandamento sem mancha nem motivo de repreensão, até a aparição do nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo.
