We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; in deed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul ... if there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

2 Timothy 4:2-3

"Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, rebuke, exort with all long suffering and doctrine. For the time will  come when they will  not endure sound doctrine but after their own lust shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears."

What does Paul mean here 'in season, out of season'? Be ready at all times with correct doctrine not just when you're teaching a Sunday School lesson or whatever? Prehaps.
PS. I had to extend it to verse 3. I love the visual of teachers with itchy ears.
