To do this you must hold firmly to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck in regard to the faith.
By professing it, some have strayed from the faith. Grace be with you all.
Compete well for the faith and lay hold of that eternal life you were called for and made your good confession for in the presence of many witnesses.
– whose appearing the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, will reveal at the right time.
