I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His
appearing and His kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great
patience and instruction. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears
tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from
the truth and will turn aside to myths. But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist,
fulfill your ministry.
