SCRIPTURE

"which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you." — 1 Timothy 6:21 (ASV)

Which some professing. Evidently some who professed to be true Christians. They were attracted by false philosophy, and soon, as a consequence, were led to deny the doctrines of Christianity. This result has not been uncommon in the world.

Have erred concerning the faith. See Barnes 1 Timothy 1:6; See Barnes 1 Timothy 1:7; See Barnes 1 Timothy 6:10.

Grace be with thee. See Barnes Romans 1:7.
