Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
I Solemnly Charge You To Proclaim The Word, For People Will Turn Away From The Truth
4 I solemnly-charge you in the sight of God and Christ Jesus, the One going-to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearance and His kingdom— 2 proclaim the Word. Stand-at[a] it in-season, out-of-season. Rebuke, warn, exhort[b], with all patience and instruction. 3 For there will be a time when they will not bear-with healthy teaching, but while itching[c] with respect to the hearing, they will heap-up teachers for themselves in accordance with their own desires. 4 And they will turn the hearing away from the truth and be turned-aside to myths. 5 But you, be sober in all things, suffer-hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill[d] your ministry.
