1 Timothy 1:5 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Timothy 1:5

No Other Doctrine

3 As I urged you ^awhen I went into Macedonia—remain in Ephesus that you may charge some ^bthat they teach no other doctrine,

4 ^anor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.

5 Now ^athe purpose of the commandment is love ^bfrom a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from¹ sincere faith,

6 from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to ^aidle talk,

7 desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.

8 But we know that the law is ^agood if one uses it lawfully,
