2 Timothy 2:21-23

The Voice

²¹ So tell them, if they will clean up their lives and purify themselves from dishonorable teachings that lead people astray, then they can become honorable vessels, consecrated and useful to the Master, made ready for every good work He has in store.

²² Timothy, run away from youthful desires. Instead, direct your passion to chasing after righteousness, faithfulness, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord with pure hearts. ²³ Excuse yourself from any conversations that turn into foolish and uninformed debates because you know they only provoke fights.
