becoming

When preparing my class on the pastoral letters, I come across this verse from 1 Timothy:

They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not understand what they are saying or the things they insist on so confidently.

想要作律法教師，卻不明白自己講的是甚麼，主張的又是甚麼。

1 Timothy 1.7 (NET/NCV)

I find it to be very true. Sometimes we are so focus to defend our theological positions; we are so insist on something so confidently, but have we truly understand what we are so fanatically insisting?

I find most people insist on things just because certain things have always been taught and thought in certain ways.
