Definition: For some are already turned aside after Satan.

Explanation: Okay, let’s break down this verse from 1 Timothy 5:15: “For some are already turned aside after Satan.” Basically, it means: “Some people have already chosen to follow a different path or way of life than the one we’re following.” Let's unpack that a little further: “Some” : This refers to a group of individuals who are currently resisting God’s will or direction. “Are turned aside” : This is a bit more figurative, but it means they’ve chosen to go in a different direction. It suggests a deliberate decision to deviate from the path that’s right for us. “After Satan” : This is the key part. “Satan” here isn't necessarily evil; it refers to the forces of temptation and negativity that try to pull people away from God. It signifies a struggle against something that tries to lead us astray. What does this verse suggest about our journey? It’s a reminder that we all face challenges and temptations. We all have moments where we might be tempted to stray from the right path. This verse encourages us to: Stay focused: It's important to stay committed to God’s guidance and purpose. Don’t give up easily: The verse suggests that those who are already turned aside aren’t giving up; they're actively resisting. Pray for strength: It implies a need for prayer and spiritual support to overcome these temptations. In short, it's a call to vigilance – to be aware of the potential for drifting away from God's will. --- Do you want me to: Explain another verse?
