1 Timothy 4:1-5 - The Coming Apostasy

¹ NOW the Spirit speaketh expresly, that in the latter days some will apostatise from the faith, giving heed to spirits of delusion, and doctrines of devils; ² men who teach lies with hypocrisy; and have their own consciences cauterised; ³ prohibiting marriage, and enjoining abstinence from particular meats, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by the faithful, and those who acknowledge the truth. ⁴ For every creature of God is good, and none to be rejected, if used with thanksgiving: ⁵ for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
