4:1  But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils,
4:2  through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;
4:3  forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth.
4:4  For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it be received with thanksgiving:
4:5  for it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.
4:6  If thou put the brethren in mind of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast followed until now:
4:7  but refuse profane and old wives' fables. And exercise thyself unto godliness:
4:8  for bodily exercise is profitable for a little; but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life which now is, and of that which is to come.
4:9  Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation.
4:10  For to this end we labour and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of them that believe.
4:11  These things command and teach.
4:12  Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an ensample to them that believe, in word, in manner of life, in love, in faith, in purity.
4:13  Till I come, give heed to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.
4:14  Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
4:15  Be diligent in these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy progress may be manifest unto all.
4:16  Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee.
