21. If a man therefore will cleanse himself from these, he will be a vessel to honor, sanctified and meet for the master's use, and prepared to every good work.
22. Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23. But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they gender contentions.
24. And the servant of the Lord must not contend; but be gentle to all men, apt to teach, patient,
25. In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God perhaps will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth:
26. And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
