“In our prayers we talk to God, in our Bible study God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.”
— D.L. Moody

16. But shun profane [and] vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. 17. And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; 18. Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
2 Timothy 2:16-18 — KJV
Shun. Or, “avoid,” “turn away from” (see Titus 3:9). Trivial and fanciful topics are not to be considered as worthy of the faithful Christian’s time. His back is to be turned upon all such chatter.
Profane and vain babblings. See on 1 Tim. 6:20.
They. Either the “vain babblings” or those who teach such empty talk.
Increase. Improper handling of the Word of God always leads to further and more severe harm both to the unwise teacher and to the church body. Truth alone leads to godliness and harmony among church members.
