1 Timothy 6:11-16 (HCSB)
Fight the Good Fight
11 But you, man of God, run from these things, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight for the faith; take hold of eternal life that you were called to and have made a good confession about in the presence of many witnesses. 13 In the presence of God, who gives life to all, and of Christ Jesus, who gave a good confession before Pontius Pilate, I charge you 14 to keep the command without fault or failure until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 God will bring this about in His own time. He is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings, and the Lord of lords, 16 the only One who has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; no one has seen or can see Him, to Him be honor and eternal might. Amen.
James Burns
As Paul begins to wrap up his instruction to Timothy and church leaders, there is no gray area. Pursue godliness and righteousness and live by faith in a loving and gentle manner. I love what he says in verse 12 – “Fight the good fight for the faith; take hold of eternal life” and live that life with Christ Jesus as our example. That’s the essence of how we are to live as Christians. It’s what separates us from the rest of the world.
