'Avoid' in the Bible

Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
