1 Timothy 1:3-7 ▼

3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain people not to teach a different doctrine,

4 neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith--

5 but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and unfeigned faith;

6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.
