Subject: clear conscience |
Bible Note: Hi JVH, While people who are seeking a "clear conscience" rightly go to 2Timothy 1:3 for a discussion, maybe we can talk of other things. I was looking at Steve's references above, especially Epesians 4:15,"...but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him, who is the head, even Christ." I am of the opinion that 2Timothy is concerned with the truth and the word of truth, and coming to the knowledge of the truth. I am of the opinion that 1st Timothy is concerned with coming to the knowlege of the Truth (2:4), knowing the (Truth) (4:3), in contrast with those deprived of the (Truth) (6:5). Are you interested in stating an opinion? |
