Second letter to Timothy 3:5

and have a form (an outward appearance) of godliness
but deny its power.
[This list of eighteen points begins and ends with the theme of selfishness. Love for oneself, instead of love for God, frames this entire passage.] Stay away from (avoid) them!
[Paul had previously urged Timothy to be kind to everyone, see 2 Tim. 2:24. This also applied to these people who seemed to be part of the church community. When Paul was a prisoner in Caesarea, the Roman governor Felix often came to listen to him, and Paul had an opportunity to share the gospel, see Acts 24:24–27. See also Rom. 16:17.]
