BE DILIGENT
2 Timothy 2:14-17a
Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness. And their message will spread like cancer.
Personal Challenge
If we are followers of Christ, then we have a responsibility to diligently represent Him in ways that will build Him and the Church up. We do this by doing His work His way! We rightly divide the word of truth, not with our interpretations, but the interpretations of the Church that has been vetted and affirmed for 2,000 years. This is how we shun profane and idle babblings that lead to heresies. We have a significant responsibility to glorify our God and not men. Lord have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy!
