1 Timothy / Question
Question source
1 Timothy
Paul contrasts “bodily training” with training for godliness. He says godliness is of value in every way, holding promise for the present life and the life to come. See 1 Timothy 4:7–8.
7But refuse profane and old wives` fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.
8For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value for all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come.
