Are You a Captive, Silly Woman? -- Christian Blogs | Everyday Christian →
“For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” - II Timothy 3:6-7 -
The words ‘captive‘ and ‘silly‘ are not kind words. I am certain that no woman would like to be considered as such. Still, God does not waste words. The teaching from II Timothy here is to instruct against false teachers. In the previous verses, God describes what sort of people to BOLO - (Be On The Look Out) for. Not an admirable list either. Characteristics such as those who are…
- Lovers of their own selves
- Covetous
- Boasters
- Proud
- Blasphemers
- Disobedient to parents
- Unthankful
- Unholy
- Without natural affection
- Trucebreakers
- False accusers
- Incontinent
- Fierce
- Despisers of those that are good
- Traitors
- Heady
- Highminded

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
