The certain men teaching strange doctrines, and dealing in myths and genealogies may have a purpose to disrupt the administration of God and causing speculation, BUT…
..our instruction is to have an end result of furthering God’s kingdom by encouraging brotherly love. Brotherly love cannot exist in an environment lacking in pureness of heart, evil conscience or insincere faith.
Pureness of Heart
Brotherly love cannot exist between two persons of impure heart.
Brotherly love cannot exist between one person of pure heart and one person of impure heart.
Brotherly love can ONLY exist between two persons of pure heart
Good Conscience
Brotherly love cannot exist between two persons of evil conscience.
Brotherly love cannot exist between one person of good conscience and one person of evil conscience.
Brotherly love can ONLY exist between two persons of good conscience.
Sincere Faith
Brotherly love cannot exist between two persons of insincere faith.
Brotherly love cannot exist between one person of sincere faith and one person of insincere faith.
Brotherly love can ONLY exist between two persons of sincere faith.
