1 Timothy 2:1-7

Bible Text

[1] I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: [2] for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. [3] For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; [4] who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth. [5] For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, [6] who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times; [7] to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
