Wasted Time In Meaningless Speculations

There is a Scandinavian folklore or mythology in Iceland about supernatural beings called trolls.


The belief is that trolls dwell in isolated rocks, caves or mountains far from human habitation, and live in small family units. 


They are considered dangerous to humans and are usually depicted as being evil and ugly.


Many Icelanders believe that trolls come alive at night and turn to stone in sunlight. Some are large and some are small.


It is believed that the ringing of church bells drives these trolls further away.

Sadly, people have wasted and continue to waste their time in endless discussion of myths which only lead to meaningless speculations. This is a tactic of the devil because it does not help people to live a life of faith in God.

"Don't let them waste their time
in endless discussion of myths and spiritual pedigrees.
These things only lead to meaningless speculations,
which don't help people live a life of faith in God."
1 Timothy 1:4 (NLT)
