¶ Start
The First Epistle of Paul to Timothy , Chapter 4 . The Holy Spirit clearly says that in the last days , some people will leave the faith . They will follow spirits that will fool them . They will believe things that demons will teach them . Teachings like those come from liars who pretend to be what they are not .
Their sense of what is right and wrong has been destroyed . It's as though it has been burned with a hot iron . They do not allow people to get married . They order them not to eat certain foods . But God created those foods . So people who believe and know the truth should receive them and give thanks for them . Everything God created is good .
You shouldn't turn anything down . Instead , you should thank God for it . The word of God and prayer make it holy . Point out these things to the brothers and sisters . Then you will serve Christ Jesus well . You will show that you've grown in the truths of the faith . You will show that you've been trained by the good teaching you've obeyed .
Don't have anything to do with godless stories and silly tales . Instead , train yourself to be godly . Training the body has some value , but being godly has value in every way . It promises help for the life you are now living and the life to come . This is the truth you can trust and accept completely . This is why we work and try so hard .
It's because we have put our hope in the living God . He is the Savior of all people . Most of all , he is the Savior of those who believe . Command and teach these things . Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young . Set an example for the believers in what you say and in how you live .
Also , set an example in how you love and in what you believe . Show the believers how to be pure Until I come . Spend your time reading scripture out loud to one another . Spend your time preaching and teaching . Don't fail to use the gift the Holy Spirit gave you . He gave it to you through a prophecy from God .
It was given when the elders placed their hands on you . Keep on doing these things . Give them your complete attention , then everyone will see how you are coming along . Be careful of how you live and what you believe . Never give up . Then you will save yourself and those who hear you .
