Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind and disqualified regarding the faith. But they will not get very far, for their folly will be plain to all, as was that of those two men. (II Timothy 3:8,9 ESV)
Folly
Lies are horrible. Whether about us, our loved ones, or the gospel, we hear lies and we get angry. We want to correct those lies. We want to stand up for truth. We want to fix the folly!
But Paul reminds us that the folly of fools and liars will be made clear. Not because of our articulation or Sword-skill… but because God guarantees that fools will fall. All lies of self-importance, false-accusation, truth-corruption will be revealed as what they are… lying lies and fooling follies.
The fullness of God’s truth lays bare the emptiness of God-denying lies. And it happens because it is in God’s nature to make it so.
We are peculiar, we do not need to fear folly.
