What the Bible says about Profane and Vain Babblings
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Timothy 6:20-21 He says, "Guard the deposit," which is "what was committed to your trust" literally means, as if one were making a deposit at a bank. Guard the deposit, the sound doctrine, the revelation of Jesus Christ! Paul calls what he should avoid "godless chatter," or as translated here "profane and vain babblings." "Contradictions" is the Greek antithesis, a rival theory, fact, or concept. Paul means of course those rival arguments to the true doctrine. John W. Ritenbaugh Guard the Truth!
