Preach the Word

1 I acharge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, bwho will judge the living and the dead2 at His appearing and His kingdom:  
2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. aConvince, brebuke, cexhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.  
3 aFor the time will come when they will not endure bsound doctrine, cbut according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;  
4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and abe turned aside to fables.  
5 But you be watchful in all things, aendure afflictions, do the work of ban evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
