In addition to spiritual warfare, Paul introduces a second metaphor—seafaring—to highlight the gravity of maintaining a good conscience. Just as a careless captain can lose his ship through neglect, so a person who fails to nurture and guard his conscience shipwrecks his faith. Paul cites two men who did precisely this: Hymenaeus and Alexander. These two were handed over to Satan—disciplined out of the church—in the hope that they would hit rock bottom, come to their senses, repent, and return to God. Without continuing in a life of holiness and obedience to God’s Word, we cannot maintain fellowship with the holy God or live a life of dependence on Him. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
