1 Timothy 4:1-5 ▼

1 Now the Spirit explicitly says that in the last times some will turn away from the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and demonic instructions

2 through the hypocrisy of liars with branded consciences.

3 They forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected when received with thanksgiving,

5 for it is made holy by the invocation of God in prayer.
