* Now the Spirit speaketh (5719 ) expressly , that in the latter times some shall depart from (5695 ) the faith , giving heed (5723 ) to seducing spirits , and doctrines of devils ; * Speaking lies in hypocrisy ; having their conscience seared with a hot iron (5772 ); * Forbidding (5723 ) to marry (5721 ), and commanding to abstain from (5733 ) meats , which God hath created (5656 ) to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know (5761 ) the truth . * For every creature of God is good , and nothing to be refused , if it be received (5746 ) with thanksgiving : * For it is sanctified (5743 ) by the word of God and prayer . * If thou put the brethren in remembrance (5734 ) of these things , thou shalt be (5704 ) a good minister of Jesus Christ , nourished up (5746 ) in the words of faith and of good doctrine , whereunto thou hast attained (5758 ). * But refuse (5737 ) profane and old wives fables , and exercise (5720 ) thyself rather unto godliness . * For bodily exercise profiteth (5748 ) little : but godliness is (5748 ) profitable unto all things , having (5723 ) promise of the life that now is , and of that which is to come (5723 ). * This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation . * For therefore we both labour (5719 ) and suffer reproach (5743 ), because we trust (5758 ) in the living (5723 ) God , who is (5748 ) the Saviour of all men , specially of those that believe . * These things command (5720 ) and teach (5720 ). * Let no man despise (5720 ) thy youth ; but be thou (5737 ) an example of the believers , in word , in conversation , in charity , in spirit , in faith , in purity . * Till I come (5736 ), give attendance (5720 ) to reading , to exhortation , to doctrine . * Neglect (5720 ) not the gift that is in thee , which was given (5681 ) thee by prophecy , with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery . * Meditate upon (5720 ) these things ; give thyself (5749 ) wholly to them ; that thy profiting may (5753 ) appear to all . * Take heed (5720 ) unto thyself , and unto the doctrine ; continue (5720 ) in them : for in doing (5723 ) this thou shalt both save (5692 ) thyself , and them that hear (5723 ) thee .
