14 But abide thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of [a]whom thou hast learned them; 15 and that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 [b]Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for [c]instruction which is in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.

[d]I charge thee in the sight of God, and of Christ Jesus, who shall judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; [e]reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
