22But flee thou youthful desires, and pursue justice, faith, charity and peace with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.Select 2 Timothy 2:22

23And avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they beget strifes.Select 2 Timothy 2:23

24But the servant of the Lord must not wrangle: but be mild toward all men, apt to teach, patient,Select 2 Timothy 2:24

25With modesty admonishing them that resist the truth: if peradventure God may give them repentance to know the truth;Select 2 Timothy 2:25
