In Context

1 But the Spirit speaks expressly, that in latter times some shall apostatise from the faith, giving their mind to deceiving spirits and teachings of demons

2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, cauterised as to their own conscience,

3 forbidding to marry, bidding to abstain from meats, which God has created for receiving with thanksgiving for them who are faithful and know the truth.

4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, being received with thanksgiving;

5 for it is sanctified by God's word and freely addressing him.

6 Laying these things before the brethren, thou wilt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which thou hast fully followed up.
