1 Tim. 1. 3, 4, 5. Charge some that they teach NO OTHER doctrine, nor give heed to fables and endless Genealogies, which minister Questions, rather than godly edifying, which is in faith: Now the End of the Commandment is Charity, out of a pure heart and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: From which some having swerved, have turned aside to vain janglings.
1 Tim. 6. 3, 4, 5, 6. If any man teach OTHERWISE, and consent not to wholesome words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to Godliness, he is PROUD, KNOWING NOTHING, but DOTING about Questions, and STRIFES of WORDS, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness, (or thinking that godliness is advantage;) from such turn away.

2 Tim. 2. 22, 23, 24. Follow righteousness, saith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart: But foolish and unlearned Questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes: and the servant of the Lord must not strive. V. 15, 16, 17. Study to show thy self approved unto God, a workman that needeth not be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the word of truth: But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase to more ungodliness, and their word will eat as doth a canker.
