"I charge you in the sight of God who gives us life, and Jesus Christ who fearlessly witnessed to the truth before Pontius Pilate, to keep your commission clean and above reproach until the final coming of Christ. This will be, in His own time, the final dénouement of God, who is the blessed controller of all things, the king over all kings and the master of all masters, the only source of immortality, the one who lives in unapproachable light, the one whom no mortal eye has ever seen or ever can see. To him be acknowledged all honor and power for ever, amen!"
I Timothy 6:13-16 (JB Phillips)
Thanks to Steve who shared this passage in our prayer time on Friday morning and then took the time to type it out and email it. It has been a good source of ponderation this morning. (Yes, I made up that word. Feel free to use it if you like.)
Please pass my thanks on to Steve, too, as I ponderate the passage as well. (Great word!)
