Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ Be earnest in presenting yourself to God as a tested man, a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, rightly handling the message of truth. ¹⁶ But shun profane and empty talk. It will grow into greater impiety, ¹⁷ and its teachings will spread like a gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort.
