The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. (1 Timothy 1:5 ESV)
It is loving to rebuke false teachers
Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions. (1 Timothy 1:6, 7 ESV)
Without centering on love through pure heart and good conscience simple sincere faith we cannot understand law or theology or deep mysteries and things of faith.
When I get lost in obligation I can't understand other things about God. I can't fundraise and I can't lead students into faith by the Spirit. God can but it is silly I try to just keep going when I am going without God in me as fully
the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted. (1 Timothy 1:10, 11 ESV)
Sound doctrine is in line with gospel
Gospel is the glory of God
To the King of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (1 Timothy 1:17 ESV)
This comes right after a whole section on all the amazing things Christ has done
Christ is the glory of God
Amen
