I Timothy 6:3 - 21

Nine: We should listen to the words of wisdom from Paul. We should not be choked by the possessions of the world, trying to get more and more stuff but we should be happy with what we have.

Twelve: We should be careful with who we associate with. We should believe the word of God and abstain from all evils.

Forty-seven: It is so easy to caught up not only in acquiring things but then in keeping them up. It is also easy to become oppressed by the never ending nature of that. 

I Timothy 3:1 - 16

Nine: We should listen and expect these things from people in power in the church.

Twelve: We should be careful who we appoint in the church. Even today we should follow these guidelines.

Forty-seven: I find myself astounded by the guidelines. The part about children is especially challenging.
