Unspiritual and Unprofitable Discussions

From: Christian Treasury: Volume 6

"Shun profane and vain babblings." "But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes." 2 Tim. 2:16,23¹⁶But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. (2 Timothy 2:16)
²³But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. (2 Timothy 2:23). We need to guard against anything that would tread down the pastures, or foul the waters, by unspiritual and unprofitable discussions, thus depriving the sheep of the flock of the rich and healthful nourishment provided (see Ezek. 34:18,19¹⁸Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet? ¹⁹And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet. (Ezekiel 34:18‑19)).
