That you keep this commandment without spot, irreproachable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
All Commentaries on 1 Timothy 6:14 Go To 1 Timothy 6
John Chrysostom
AD 407
There is need not only of profession but of patience also to persevere in that profession, and of vehement contention, and of numberless toils, that you be not overthrown…. It is necessary therefore to be selfcollected and well belted in on every side. All around appear pleasures attracting the eyes of the soul. Those of beauty, of wealth, of luxury, of indolence, of glory, of revenge, of power, of dominion, and these are all fair and lovely in appearance, and able to captivate those who are unsteady and who do not love the truth.
