1 Timothy 4:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ Training your body helps you in some ways, but serving God helps you in every way by bringing you blessings in this life and in the future life, too. ⁹ What I say is true, and you should fully accept it. ¹⁰ This is why we work and struggle:^[a] We hope in the living God who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.
