1 Timothy 4:1
And the Spirit expressly speaketh, that in latter times shall certain fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and teachings of demons,
1 Timothy 4:2
in hypocrisy speaking lies, being seared in their own conscience,
1 Timothy 4:3
forbidding to marry--to abstain from meats that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those believing and acknowledging the truth,
1 Timothy 4:4
because every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, with thanksgiving being received,
1 Timothy 4:5
for it is sanctified through the word of God and intercession.
1 Timothy 4:6
These things placing before the brethren, thou shalt be a good ministrant of Jesus Christ, being nourished by the words of the faith, and of the good teaching, which thou didst follow after,
1 Timothy 4:7
and the profane and old women's fables reject thou, and exercise thyself unto piety,
1 Timothy 4:8
for the bodily exercise is unto little profit, and the piety is to all things profitable, a promise having of the life that now is, and of that which is coming;
1 Timothy 4:9
stedfast is the word, and of all acceptation worthy;
1 Timothy 4:10
for for this we both labour and are reproached, because we hope on the living God, who is Saviour of all men--especially of those believing.
1 Timothy 4:11
Charge these things, and teach;
1 Timothy 4:12
let no one despise thy youth, but a pattern become thou of those believing in word, in behaviour, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity;
1 Timothy 4:13
till I come, give heed to the reading, to the exhortation, to the teaching;
1 Timothy 4:14
be not careless of the gift in thee, that was given thee through prophecy, with laying on of the hands of the eldership;
1 Timothy 4:15
of these things be careful; in these things be, that thy advancement may be manifest in all things;
1 Timothy 4:16
take heed to thyself, and to the teaching; remain in them, for this thing doing, both thyself thou shalt save, and those hearing thee.
