Myths and Endless Genealogies

(1/6) > >>

aqrinc:
The Apostles were battling teachers of false doctrine very soon after Christianity was born.
According to the Scriptures: myths and endless genealogies, useless discussion rather than
promoting the Faith. How do we avoid those same mistakes today; seeing that there is so
much misinformation and disinformation everywhere we turn.

All of us were rescued from where we were thoroughly indoctrinated in some huMan's Religion.
One thing i have noticed though is that we mostly want to put a fresh coat of paint on the
old and fit it neatly into BT.

I hope this is not considered teaching because that is not my aim. Instead just asking why
should we try to hang on to any of the stuff that we were snatched out of. Now we
know; through Rays writings and audios plus some of the scales have been removed from
our eyes; what is the fascination with going back to being Spiritually Dead.

Ok off the horse, but i would really like to hear from other members how the Scriptures
below and my little essay above affects your thinking or not.

1st Timothy: 1: 3-6 (GOD'S WORD Bible)

3-When I was going to the province of Macedonia, I encouraged you to stay in the city of
Ephesus. That way you could order certain people to stop teaching false doctrine

4-and occupying themselves with myths and endless genealogies. These myths and genealogies
 raise a lot of questions rather than promoting God's plan, which centers in faith.

5-My goal in giving you this order is for love to flow from a pure heart, from a clear conscience,
and from a sincere faith.

6-Some people have left these qualities behind and have turned to useless discussions.

George when I am learning something new I have to think on a subject a lot and then memories of the old come up and I look at the differences. Talking about it reinforces the new thinking for me. Don't we have to "Eat" and digest the word of God (get it down in our spirit )  judy

Ninny:
Good thought Judy! I think you're right you do have to digest! As for me I do occasionally remember where I came from never with longing to go back but with gratitude for how far I have come! Looking back to the past sometimes helps me focus on the future, just to know that I am going forward and not longing for some time in my life that I'd never want to relive, but I'd never want to change!

Thanks for that reminder, though George It is good to live in the moment looking forward!

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT IS FOR CHRIST'S DISCIPLES
THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT IS FOR YOU, NOW!


YOU NOW speaks VOLUMES!

CHRIST'S JUDGMENTS ARE UPON US, NOT THE WORLD

We know that Judgment teaches us His Rigteousness which is such a blessing and privilage. It is not a negative hostile outcome that results from the Judgement of our Lord that brings us to understand and know Him better.

I love what is written in LOF Part 3

GOD IS LOVE

GOD IS SOVEREIGN

CHRIST’S WORDS ARE SPIRIT

MAN’S WILL IS NOT FREE AND INDEPENDENT OF GOD

THE GREEK WORD ‘AIONIOS’ NEVER MEANS ETERNAL

GOD WILLS TO SAVE ALL MANKIND

GOD WILL PERFORM ALL HIS WILL

These seven spiritual truths will protect you from all unscriptural and heretical teachings. And as you mature in Christ Jesus our Lord, you will only be required to understand and believe one of the above spiritual truths. That would be the first one which covers ALL: GOD IS LOVE !

George, I do think, no I know that we sometimes get caught up in useless discussions...even here on the forum and I do believe that your posting this is for love to flow from a pure heart, from a clear conscience, and from a sincere faith. 

As for me....I pray that God will give me a spirit of discernment....knowledge to know when to stay clear of useless discussions.

Arcturus has reminded me of the spiritual that will protect me and us from all unscriptural and heretical teachings.....GOD IS LOVE
