1Timothy 4:1-5 - Prayer Tents

1Timothy 4

False Teachers

4The Spirit says clearly that some people will abandon the faith in later times; they will obey lying spirits and follow the teachings of demons.G1161G4151G3004G4490G3754G1722G5306G2540G5100G868G4102G4337G4108G4151G2532G1319G11402Such teachings are spread by deceitful liars, whose consciences are dead, as if burnt with a hot iron.G5573G1722G5272G2743G2398G4893G27433Such people teach that it is wrong to marry and to eat certain foods. But God created those foods to be eaten, after a prayer of thanks, by those who are believers and have come to know the truth.G2967G1060G567G1033G3739G2316G2936G1519G3336G3326G2169G4103G2532G1921G2254Everything that God has created is good; nothing is to be rejected, but everything is to be received with a prayer of thanks,G3754G3956G2938G2316G2570G2532G3762G579G2983G3326G21695because the word of God and the prayer make it acceptable to God.G1063G37G1223G3056G2316G2532G1783

A Good Servant of Christ Jesus

6If you give these instructions to the believers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, as you feed yourself spiritually on the words of faith and of the true teaching which you have followed.G5294G80G5294G5023G2071G2570G1249G2424G5547G1789G3056G4102G2532G2570G1319G3739G38777But keep away from those godless legends, which are not worth telling. Keep yourself in training for a godly life.G1161G3868G952G2532G1126G3454G1161G1128G4572G4314G21508Physical exercise has some value, but spiritual exercise is valuable in every way, because it promises life both for the present and for the future.G1063G4984G1129G2076G5624G4314G3641G1161G2150G2076G5624G4314G3956G2192G1860G2222G3568G2532G31959This is a true saying, to be completely accepted and believed.G4103G3056G2532G514G3956G59410We struggle and work hard, because we have placed our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all and especially of those who believe.G1063G1519G5124G2872G2532G2872G2532G3679G3754G1679G1909G2198G2316G3739G2076G4990G3956G444G3122G410311Give them these instructions and these teachings.G5023G3853G2532G132112Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but be an example for the believers in your speech, your conduct, your love, faith, and purity.G2706G3367G2706G4675G3503G235G1096G5179G4103G1722G3056G1722G391G1722G26G1722G4151G1722G4102G1722G4713Until I come, give your time and effort to the public reading of the Scriptures and to preaching and teaching.G2193G2064G4337G320G3874G131914Do not neglect the spiritual gift that is in you, which was given to you when the prophets spoke and the elders laid their hands on you.G272G3361G5486G1722G4671G3739G1325G4671G1223G4394G3326G1936G5495G424415Practice these things and devote yourself to them, in order that your progress may be seen by all.G3191G5023G2468G1722G5125G2443G4675G4297G5600G5318G1722G395616Watch yourself and watch your teaching. Keep on doing these things, because if you do, you will save both yourself and those who hear you.G1907G4572G2532G1319G1961G846G1063G4160G5124G4982G2532G4982G4572G2532G191G4675
