1 Timothy / Question
Question source
1 Timothy
Paul links prayer for rulers to living a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. The instruction is part of his call to pray broadly for all people. See 1 Timothy 2:1–2.
1I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men:
2for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
