1 | clear conscience | 1 Tim 3:2 | Searcher56 | 7203 | ||
It is verse 5, but, verse 3 begins the context. I think it is hard if we try by ourselves. As with all we do ... we need Christ. We need to study the Word and know what we do is right. It can be hard to stand up and tell the false teachers that they are wrong. We do not want to offend. Even more so if they are over you, or if you are in the military and the chapalin (who outranks you) preaches falsehood as truth. |

2 | clear conscience | 1 Tim 3:2 | Ray | 7205 | ||
O.K.whatever.We'll talk about 1Tim 3:2. Verse six is also interesting in comparison with Titus 1:10 as my Study Bible references. "For some men, straying from theses things, have turned aside to fruitless discussion, wanting to be teachers of the Law..."--"...For this cause reprove them severely that they may be sound in the faith, not paying attention of Jewish myths and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.." I see a contrast between teaching the Law and teaching the Truth, if you will. I think that it is important to stand up and speak the truth in love as your Ephesians reference says. I think also that any leader of worth will listen to you no matter what his rank. I worked for a chaplain in the U.S.Army. (clerk typist, field organ player, driver, etc.) and my boss would not have been rank conscious. |

P.S. For verse six above look at 1Tim 1:6. Sorry for the confusion here; I need a clear conscience too. | ||||||
