?O Timothy?, Paul cries out ?protect what has been entrusted to you by avoiding the profane chatter and contradictive absurdities of so-called ?knowledge.? By professing it,? he warns ?some have strayed from the faith.? (1 Tim 6:20,21)

This was a very tough charge for this young man. Philosophers and scientists surrounded him. How was he to avoid such things and similarly protect what has been entrusted to him, the very preaching and teaching of the gospel of God (1 Th 2:4)? How are we to do the same?

This chart may prove helpful in the study of the book of Daniel. Its a
look at the thematic thought flow of Daniel with comparisons of
illustrations and stories.

Now, it would be important to realize that I did not say, "men are not sinners".
That would have been foolish and completely inconsistent with the
thrust of the passage. I am simply saying that the poetic passage is
not a point by point listing of the utter depravity of man but rather a
descriptive illustration of how all of mankind, both Jew and Greek, are sinners (Rom. 3:9).
