But avoid foolish and unlearned debates, knowing that they create strife.
nor pay attention to fables and endless genealogies, which cause debates rather than godly edifying, which is in faith.
But refuse profane and foolish myths. Instead, exercise in the ways of godliness.
Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to argue about words, which is useless, to the ruin of those who hear.
But avoid profane foolish babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness,
But avoid foolish debates, genealogies, contentions, and arguments about the law, for they are unprofitable and useless.
Where do wars and fights among you come from? Do they not come from your lusts that war in your body?
