In 2 Timothy 4:3-4 Paul tells Timothy how people will be spiritually misled. He says "For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths." He is telling Timothy that people will be mislead in regards to Biblical teaching. People will believe "myths" because they aren't listening to the right teaching because they want to fulfill their own "passions." In other words if I want to financially prosper then I will fall prey to teaching that contradicts scripture but presents itself as true gospel and subtly will encourage financial hoarding for the sake of self, not to help others. We all need to be careful of the sources and teachers that we use. We also need to read the Bible and seek to understand it as it was presented, not as we want to utilize it.
