1 Timothy

1 Timothy 5:20–21

20But those who persist in sin should be rebuked in front of everyone, so that the others will stand in fear of sin.

21I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels to maintain these principles without bias, and to do nothing out of partiality.
