1 Timothy 6:5 in Context — 1 Timothy 6

3 Se alguém ensina doutrina diferente, e não concorda com as sãs palavras do nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo e com a doutrina que é conforme a devoção divina,

4 é presunçoso, e nada sabe. Em vez disso, se interessa de maneira doentia por questões e disputas de palavras, das quais nascem invejas, brigas, blasfêmias, suspeitas maldosas,

5 discussões inúteis de pessoas corrompidas de entendimento, e privadas da verdade, que pensam que a devoção divina é um meio de lucrar. Afasta-te dos tais.

6 Mas grande lucro é a devoção divina acompanhada de contentamento.

7 Pois nada trouxemos ao mundo, e [é] evidente que nada podemos levar dele.
