1 Timothy 6:10-12

The Messiah’s royal appearing
11 But you, man of God—you must run away from all this. Instead, chase after justice, godliness, faith, love, patience and gentleness. 12 Fight the noble fight of the faith, get a firm grasp on the life of the coming age, the life you were called to when you made the noble public profession before many witnesses.
