Ebionites = strict Torah observance, reject Paul's teachings, Jesus purely human Messiah.
Nazarenes = Torah observance + Jesus as divine Messiah, more accepting of Paul.
Both small minority sects amidst a growing Gentile Christian majority embracing Pauline doctrine and divinity of Jesus. This complexity shows the diversity of early Christianity before orthodoxy consolidated around gentile-friendly, Trinitarian beliefs.

2nd Timothy Chapter 4
1 I am conjuring you in the sight of God and Christ Jesus, Who is about to be judging the living and the dead, in accord with His advent and His kingdom:
2 Herald the word. Stand by it, opportunely, inopportunely, expose, rebuke, entreat, with all patience and teaching.
3 For the era will be when they will not tolerate sound teaching, but, their hearing being tickled, they will heap up for themselves teachers in accord with their own desires,
4 and, indeed, they will be turning their hearing away from the truth, yet will be turned aside to myths.
5 Yet you be sober in all things; suffer evil as an ideal soldier of Christ Jesus; do the work of an evangelist; fully discharge your service.
