I get a sense from this passage that there was constant pressure to water down the essential truth of the message and to be diverted from the central truth about who Christ was and why he came. I do not have to guess what Paul means when he tells Timothy that they are in a fight for the gospel. So are we. Major on the majors and not the minors - focus on Christ and the main mission to "save sinners".
Thought for the day: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners - case closed. Does much else matter? Keep a grip on that and it will be hard to go wrong.
