1 Tim 1:
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,
(MY NOTE: Paul is telling Timothy to challenge those that try to add anything to their gospel message)
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
(MY NOTE: Paul says challenge those invoking questions about endless genealogies. That detract from our faith message. Also see Titus 3:9)
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
(MY NOTE Now the END of the commandment is: Love from a pure heart & good conscience mixed with genuine Faith)
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
(MY NOTE: Wondering into empty arguments & useless discussions, about law invoked punishments that are no longer applicable to believers)
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
(MY NOTE: These law teachings derail the NT message: Love from a pure heart & sincere Faith toward Christ).
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
(MY NOTE: OT law doctrines problem: Slip once/break one (all do) you've broken them all & now owe sins required wage/death)
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
(MY NOTE: Every believer has been justified & received Christ' imputed gift of righteousness (Rom 5:17-18). Placing them in a right standing with the Father, thru Faih in Christ. Who is the Lord our righteousness. (Jer 23:5, 33:15, 1 Cor 1:30, 2 Cor 5:21) Once justified & declared righteous all sin due punishment has been imputed onto Christ. He bought them ALL with His own sinless blood)
2 Cor 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
(MY NOTE: Righteousness is only available thru faith in Christ)
