1 Timothy 4:7-10

要棄絕那世俗的言語、和老婦荒渺的話、在敬虔上操練自己。
操練身體、益處還少．惟獨敬虔、凡事都有益處． 因有今生和來生的應許．
這話是可信的、是十分可佩服的。
我們勞苦努力、正是為此．因我們的指望在乎永生的　神．他是萬人的救主、更是信徒的救主。

Stay clear of silly stories that get dressed up as religion. Exercise daily in God - no spiritual flabbiness, please!
Workouts in the gymnasium are useful, but a disciplined life in God is far more so, making you fit both today and forever.
You can count on this. Take it to heart.
This is why we've thrown ourselves into this venture so totally. We're banking on the living God, Savior of all men and women, especially believers.
