July 11.00: Light For The Day - "The Teaching Of Pure Heart"

To handle yourself use your head;
to handle others use your heart.
-------------------
-- 1 Timothy 1:5 
"The goal of our instruction is that all the Christians
there would be filled with love that comes from a
pure heart, a clear conscience, and sincere faith."

Muc dich cua su giang day la Co Doc Nhan
co day tinh yeu thuong, co luong tam tot, va duc tin thanh that.

++ The false teachers were motivated by a spirit of
curiosity and a desire to gain power and prestige. 
By contrast, genuine Christian teachers are motivated
by sincere faith and a desire to do what is right. 
It may be exciting to impress people with our great
knowledge, but high status based on falsehood is
ultimately empty.

1 Timothy 1:6 .... "But some teachers have missed
this whole point. They have turned away from these
things and spend their time arguing and talking
foolishness."

++ Arguing about details of the Bible can send us off
on interesting but irrelevant tangents and cause us to
miss the intent of God’s message. The false teachers
at Ephesus constructed vast speculative systems and
then argued about the minor details of their wholly
imaginary ideas. We should allow nothing to distract
us from the Good News of salvation in Jesus Christ,
the main point of Scripture. We should know what the
Bible says, apply it to our life daily, and teach it to
others. When we do this, we will be able to evaluate
all teachings in light of the central truth about Jesus.
Don’t focus on the minute details of the Bible to the
exclusion of the main point God is teaching you.

-- Romans 13:8 (RSV)
"Owe no one anything, except to love one another;
for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law."
