Controversies In The Church, 1 Timothy 1:3-4

Coroorversies In The Church

1 Timothy 1:3-4 As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work - which is by faith.

Arguing about pointless disagreements creates controversies. It destroys the church! It is important that we stop boasting and falsehood from hurting the body of Christ. Do not confuse pointless arguments with stopping false doctrines. False doctrines destroy the church as well.

A & K, throughout the years ahead you'll see people argue about when Christ will come back, what has to happen before he does, what heaven will be like and what we will all be doing there... So many things in the Bible we do not fully know... do not get caught up in these foolish controversies. Stick to the main points of salvation and holy living, especially being separate from the world and its pleasures... even in those be careful. It is not worth the destruct of the spiritual lives of others.
