I don't know any 5th graders who are at all proficient in 16th century English and very few children or adults who understand the theological meaning of "age". The irony of having this discussion regarding 2 Timothy 2 seems to have been lost on you. The following is a more accurate translation of the relevant portion:
"Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, and their talk will spread like gangrene. - Timothy 2:14-17
Peace be with you
Well, I suppose God will have to decide what He meant when He said it. One makes perfect sense and completely destroys organized religious institutions and removes man from being deceived. The other keeps man chained to the rites and rituals and traditions of other fallen men. Still lost and dead in their sins, with nothing but fear and desperation. You decide.
