2 Timothy 2:22-23

Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.

pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace
1 Timothy 1:14 The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
1 Timothy 6:11 But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.

along with those who call on the Lord
Acts 2:21 "'and everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'"

out of a pure heart
1 Timothy 1:5 The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels
2 Timothy 2:14 Keep reminding them of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen.

NOTES:
1 Timothy 4:12 Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.
