1 Timothy 4

1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3Forbidding to marry, to abstain from meats, which Elohim has created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 4For every creature of Elohim good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: 5For it is sanctified by the word of Elohim and prayer. 6If you put the brethren in remembrance of these things, you shall be a good minister of Yahusha Messiah, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto you hast attained. 7But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself unto godliness. 8For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. 9This a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. 10For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living Elohim, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 11These things command and teach. 12Let no man despise your youth; but be you an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14Neglect not the gift that is in you, which was given you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that your profiting may appear to all. 16Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this you shall both save thyself, and them that hear you.
