Common English Bible

1 Timothy 1:5-8 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. The goal of instruction is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith.

6. Because they missed this goal, some people have been distracted by talk that doesn’t mean anything.

7. They want to be teachers of Law without understanding either what they are saying or what they are talking about with such confidence.

8. Now we know that the Law is good if used appropriately.
