If we are to avoid those who have an outward form of godliness, but deny the power thereof, should we not first make certain that we are?

Question

... acknowledging the POWER of god-likeness?

"...holding to an outward form of godliness but denying its power. Avoid these people!" 
(2 Timothy 3:5 TLV)

Do we yet understand the meaning and purpose of such power?

What happens when believers believe their words like God does?

Are we not called to be "imitators of God as dear children"?

"Therefore be imitators of God, as dearly loved children;" 
(Ephesians 5:1 TLV)

For how else can we say this, except we are acknowledging and acting the part?

"Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Messiah." 1Co 11:1

Thank you, beloved of God, for considering this Q. and for sharing as the Spirit leads. : )

Not really a question requiring an answer, is it? It's more mindless regurgitation of scripture requiring people's comments to justify your beliefs, isn't it?

sure, you should avoid people who disagree with you, you might discover that they're actually talking sense, and where would you be then? perish the thought.
