2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
1 Timothy
More Than Praying For Others
As saints of God, we do more than pray for others, but also supplicate, pray, intercede, and give thanks for them also.
1 Timothy 1:4,5
1 Timothy 1:4,5 (KJV)
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
Endless Genealogies in Mormonism: Part 1
Endless genealogies are not of God. This type of work only leads to more questions than answers, along with forming false beliefs.
1 Timothy 4:12
1 Timothy 4:12 (KJV)
12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
Endless Genealogies
The time for keeping endless genealogies was done away with, with the Old Law. We now live for Christ each day, while in the faith.
1 Timothy 4:1,2
1 Timothy 4:1,2 (KJV)
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
To Depart From The Faith
Even If we live many years for the Lord, but then depart from it because of our sins or unbelief, our salvation is lost in death.
1 Timothy 6:7-9
1 Timothy 6:7-9 (KJV)
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
The Love Of Money Is The Root Of All Evil
Truly, money almost took me down the path of becoming divorced and even homeless, because of almost losing our home and all the stress in the marriage.
1 Timothy 2:9,10
1 Timothy 2:9,10 (KJV)
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

Living For God Makes Us Different
God uses people in the faith that not only believe in Him, but also love Him with their whole hearts. This means that a person has sought out God, in order to know Him.
Garments, Temples, Prophets, And The Law Of Moses
Jesus is our God and who we should be seeking in His church. This is because He is at the head of it, and not the corruption of man.
Follow Jesus And Not Prophets

1 Timothy 1:15
1 Timothy 1:15 (KJV)
15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

When it comes to knowing what God’s law is and supposed to do for a person we go to God’s Word, for the teaching.
Joseph Smith And His Life Of Polygamy
In order to know the truth of Joseph Smith or expose him for what he really is, we will look at four things that stem from his practice of polygamy that easily proves that fact.
