1
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3
Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4
For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5
For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
6
If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
7
But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
8
For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
9
This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
10
For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
11
These things command and teach.
12
Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
13
Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
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.
15
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

16
Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Summary of 1 Timothy chapter 4
Paul tells Timothy in 1 Timothy Chapter 4 not to let any person look down upon him since he was young. Timothy was to be a good example for all of the believers in conduct, in speech, in faith, in purity, and in love. … He warns Timothy to carefully watch his life, as well as the doctrine.

closing prayer; Heavenly Father, thank You that You have graciously allowed us to have access to the Word of God and the truth it contains. Give us wisdom to stand on the foundation of truth, and not to be influenced by those that deny the eating of particular foods, or restrict certain God-ordained institutions, like marriage and the family unit.. for unbiblical reasons – knowing that all good and perfect things come from You, for which we give You grateful thanks and praise – in Jesus name we pray, AMEN.

For those who wish to become a child of our heavenly Lord, or strengthen thier faith, please pray the following prayer below.

Dear Heavenly Father, I want to be a part of your family. You said in Your Word that if I acknowledge that You raised Jesus from the dead, and that I accept Him as my Lord and Savior, I would be saved. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for forgiving me, saving me, and giving me eternal life with You. Amen!” 
By saying this prayer, we believe you are born again.
