21 Which [hos] some [tis] professing [epaggello] have erred [astocheo] concerning [peri] the faith. [pistis] Grace [charis] be with [meta] thee. [sou] Amen. [amen] KJV-Interlinear

21 which some have professed and thus gone astray from the faith. Grace be with you. NASB

The single most important reason for guarding the Word of God, within your own soul, is to prevent you from going astray from the truth, and getting caught up in the lies of the world.

Remember that there are but two viewpoints in existence Gods, which is truth, and everything else, which are not truth (lies).

Gods view does not include anything false, however, all other views may include bits of truth, but because they include anything that is false, makes them totally false by trying to imply their worth by deception, by including some form of truth.

Remember, Satan is the father of lies.His sole purpose is to confuse truth, and to get everyone away from truth, by use of confusion, challenge, ambiguity and so forth.

If a person is not knowledgeable in truth, then getting deceived is easy. Only if you know the facts, can you avoid being fooled.

And unfortunately far too many people do not study their scriptures, and therefore do not have any orientation to truth or life.So, they adopt all of the wrong and false and bizarre ideas that are out there in the world, and they see nothing wrong with any of them.And, that is how people get themselves into trouble and how the world gets itself into trouble.

The subject of 1 Timothy, is maintaining. Bible doctrine is the foundation of knowledge that sets truth apart from everything else.Bible doctrine helps people to focus and discern, and understand how and why things are the way that they are.Bible doctrine helps people get through, what is otherwise a terrible life for most, because this is the devils world, and has been since the fall of Adam.

This world is imperfect.God did not make it that way.Satan did.

This world is full of bias, unfair situations, hypocrisy, handicaps in many forms, not the least of which are sin and death.

This world has had one ruler for over six-thousand years Satan. And the results of his rule have been one empire after another (six so far with one more yet to go), and one disaster after another. Satan has given us all a life of hardship, suffering, and uncertainty. And while he remains in power, things in this world are not going to change for the better, not ever.

Change will not occur until the Second Advent, when Christ takes the throne away from Satan and Satan is incarcerated in prison for a thousand years. Then, everything in this world will change dramatically, and for the better.

But in the mean time, you and I have to deal with life as it is now. We can ignore Gods Word and struggle through life, finding someone or something to blame (usually God), or we can learn Bible doctrine and gain a real understanding of the how s and why s of this world, and at the same time prepare ourselves for our next life, and the massive blessings that await those who take the time to learn Gods Word.

We can maintain our life, our sanity, our orientation to reality, our spiritual growth:

First, by believing the Word of God, John 5:24.

Second, by honoring the Word, Job 23:12.

Third, by loving the Word, Psa 119:97.

Fourth, by obeying the Word, John 8:31.

Fifth, by proclaiming the Word, 2 Tim 4:2.

Sixth, by defending the Word, Jude 3.

Seventh, and the most important, by studying the Word, 2 Tim 2:15. For without an objective daily study, you cannot comply with any of the first six.

The world is relentless at throwing all kinds of hardships and enticements at you, in order to get you to stray from doctrine, and fail in life. There is no success of any kind, without Bible doctrine driving it.

But, if you are armed with Bible doctrine in your soul, then whatever the world throws at you, you can defeat it, and remain loyal to God, through your faith, because you know that it is evil who is attacking you, and that it will one day lose its battle to Christ.
