12. instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world;
13. looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ;
14. who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.
15. Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no man despise you.
