1 Timothy 6:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Froward [a]disputations of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, which think that gain is godliness: from such separate thyself.
6 [b]But godliness is great gain, if a man be content with that he hath.
7 [c]For we brought nothing into the world, and it is certain, that we can carry nothing out.

- 1 Timothy 6:5 Such as we see in those shameless schools of Popery, which are nothing else but vain babbling and prating.
- 1 Timothy 6:6 He turneth away fitly the name of gain and lucre, confessing that godliness is great gain, but far after another sort, to wit, because it bringeth true sufficience.
- 1 Timothy 6:7 He mocketh their folly, which do so greedily gape after frail things, that they can in no wise be satisfied, and yet notwithstanding they cannot enjoy that excess.
