Allow No Myths, Preach Jesus Christ Alone!

2 Timothy 4:2-4 "…2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction. 3 For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. 4 So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.…"
Believers we need to stop speaking about the myths and legends and begin speaking about Jesus Christ.
When we teach the myths and Jesus Christ together we minimize and reduce our Lord to the level of the myth. One cannot add myth to Christ and get anything good. The myth will always get more glory than Christ.
Isaiah 30:10
"They say to the seers, "Stop seeing visions!" and to the prophets, "Do not prophesy to us the truth! Speak to us pleasant words; prophesy illusions."
2 Timothy 1:13
"Hold on to the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus."
