1 Timothy 6:20-21 NKJV
O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge- [21] by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
We like Timothy must guard and protect the trust of: faith, truth, hope, doctrine and sound teaching, freedom from sin, love, and willingness of heart leading to obedience! We have been given and entrusted with these, not earned, so that if they are lost they may not be regained. Do not lose what you were given! “Whoever has, to him more will be given” , and “Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown”! (Mark 4:25; Revelation 3:11)
Also we must avoid getting caught up in or trusting in other worldly knowledge. Of course there is some knowledge of this life that is profitable for our short stay here, such as ability to do your work well, business, investing, science, schooling, arts, practicalities, etc., but we must realize it’s worthlessness in comparison to true knowledge leading to godly living, humility, repentance, and God’s eternal kingdom! A more dangerous knowledge is that of philosophy and psychology, which is a circular reasoning from the head and of the head that leads nowhere but to a polite and carefully worded spiritual declination. A most perilous knowledge is that of false religion (even that of the “Christian” sort), spiritual pride and strength, that leads you away from dependence on Christ for everything, and leads you to be independently walking the easy path to hell.
Scriptures:
2 Timothy 1:13-14 NKJV
But you have not so learned Christ (in other words, you didn’t learn this worldly thinking from Jesus or from me..)
2 Corinthians 10:5 AMP
We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ
