1 Timothy 4:7-8

Topic: SELF-CONTROL

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself toward godliness. For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.”

1 Timothy 4:7-8

Paul tells Timothy to train himself for godliness, just like someone trains their body for fitness. Physical exercise is good, but spiritual discipline has eternal value.
