03/23/19 ACTUALLY ADDRESSES THIS VERY SUBJECT (among other issues)

03/23/19  ACTUALLY ADDRESSES THIS VERY SUBJECT (among other issues)
 
BE SURE TO READ MY COMMENT BELOW. This passage addresses our subject beautifully.

Paul warns Timothy about the dangers of turning to authorities aside from the Scriptures. Look for these points in the passage.


Points To Consider
Others were teaching doctrines contrary to the word of God.
Jewish fables and Jewish genealogies had been introduced by Rabbis in the past that turned their attention to Jewish lineages, which caused more confusion AND did not edify others in faith.
It has been a tactic of the devil to upset faith and godliness by making the natural lineage of the Jews a major focus.
The goal of Christian belief and faith is Love from a Pure heart, a Good Conscience and True, Sincere Faith.
Turning attention to separating and explaining the lineages of Jews leads to empty and meaningless chatter.
People think it is wise and spiritual to become teachers of the law, though they themselves do not even understand their assertions.
The law of God has a purpose, but it is not intended to bring division among brethren, hatred of Israel or Jews, an attitude of superiority based on "special knowledge" (which is actually Gnosticism).

1 Timothy 1:3-7
3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.


SUMMARY
Jew hating and Israel hating is based on extra Biblical writings rather than the word of God. Jew hating and Israel hating is demonic, just like the extra Biblical writings of the ancient Jews and modern antisemitic groups.
