10 for fornicators, for males who sleep with males, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine,
11 which is in accord with the Gospel of the glory of the blessed God, the Gospel which has been entrusted to me.
12 I give thanks to him who has strengthened me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he has considered me faithful, placing me in the ministry,

14 And so the grace of our Lord has abounded greatly, with the faith and love that is in Christ Jesus.
