2 TIMOTHY 2:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 2
“Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.”
who have swerved from the truth by saying that the resurrection has already happened. They are upsetting the faith of some. — The specific error: these teachers claim the anastasis (resurrection) has already occurred (past tense, realized eschatology). Their pseudologia (false doctrine) invert (anatrephō) the faith (pistis) of vulnerable believers.
