Yes, But...

Read 2 Timothy 4:1-8


They will turn their ears away from the truth.  2 Timothy 4:4

It's dangerous and the worst kind of arrogance to think we know more about an issue than God does.  Scripture predicted this kind of thinking.  Paul said in 2 Timothy 4: "They will not endure sound doctrine,  but according to their own desires.. they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth" (vv.3-4)  This points to people who set aside the inspired Word of God(3:16) in order to accept teaching they think is "ok".

When the Bible clearly spells out a principle, we honor God by obeying Him.  For believers, there is no room for "Yes, but..." responses to Scripture - Dave Branon

The Bible: Read it, believe it, obey it!
