2 Timothy 3:7

7 who are always learning but never able to come to full knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 3:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 Timothy 3:7

Ever learning
Some new notion and practice or another: and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth; partly because of the teachers, which they heap up to themselves, who are unapt to teach, are blind and ignorant guides, and know not the truth, but are enemies to it, and resist it; and partly because of themselves, the sins they are laden, and the lusts they are led away with, which hinder them from coming to the knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 3:7 In-Context

5 as they retain the outer form of religion but deny its power. Stay away from these people!

6 For some of them worm their way into homes and get control of weak-willed women who are heaped with sins and swayed by various impulses,

7 who are always learning but never able to come to full knowledge of the truth.

8 In the same way as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moshe, so also these people oppose the truth. They are people with corrupted minds, whose trust cannot pass the test.

9 However, they won't get very far; because everyone will see how stupid they are, just as happened with those two.
