Those who thrust away a good conscience become shipwrecked regarding The faith (1:19). The serving ones in the church must hold the mystery of The faith in a pure conscience (3:9). To keep a good and pure conscience is to keep the conscience sensitive in its function. This will safeguard us from the demonic and hypocritical teachings of deceiving liars.

I Timothy 1.5 exposes the irony of ironies in the promotion of Nee and Lee as MOTAs.
This verse is Lee's theme verse supporting the teachings of "God's Economy," yet in the same breath Paul warns us not to occupy ourselves with "myths and unending genealogies."
Is not the list of MOTAs a "myth and unending genealogy," in the same manner as the Papal genealogy?
