We are workmen, not wordsmiths.

2 Timothy 2:14-15
Keep reminding them of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.

Too often we are wordsmiths rather than workmen. The Word is the tool God has given us for our work, not the fuel to feed our fiery debates or fancy rhetoric.

I agree with you but just curious what prompted this. EKB
