This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:



Ver. 5. Now the end of the commandment] Or, of the charge, to wit, of that charge, to teach no other doctrine, &c., 1Ti_1:3-4. As if the apostle had said, This is that which a teacher should aim at, to beget such a love in his hearers’ hearts, as may speak them true believers and good livers. Boni Catholici sunt (saith Augustine) qui et fidem integram sequuntur, et bonos mores. Those are good Catholics that believe well and live well.
