A TRUSTWORTHY SAYING
1st Timothy 4:9-10: “This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance (and for this we labor and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially those who believe.”
Paul’s point in this chapter is to stress the importance of discernment; knowing right from wrong, or better said, being able to discern false teachings of the Devil’s helpers. They preach misleading doctrine such as telling their followers not to marry or to abstain from certain foods, (verse 3). Verse 4 says ‘everything God created is good.’
There are religions or cults that preach this type of false doctrine today plus many other things that prevent us from knowing the truth. There is a book called, Fast Facts on False Teaching by Ron Carlson and Ed Decker, I would strongly suggest you purchase a copy, if for no other reason than to acquire a bit of education so sorely needed today.
Naturally the best book is a book called the Bible by God.
