Etheridge - I Timothy - 4

4:1  But the Spirit distinctly saith, that in the last times some will remove from the faith, and will go after deceiving spirits, and after doctrines of demons.

4:2  These, with a false appearance, will deceive, speaking a lie, and seared in their conscience,

4:3  and prohibiting to marry, and abstaining from meats, which Aloha created to be used with thanksgiving by them who believe and know the truth;

4:4  because every creature of Aloha is good, and nothing to be abominated, if with thanksgiving it be received;

4:5  for it is sanctified by the word of Aloha, and by prayer.

4:6  These if thou shalt teach thy brethren, a good minister wilt thou be of Jeshu Meshiha, while thou wilt be enlarged with words of faith and of the good doctrine which thou hast learned.

4:7  But from the foolish stories of old women abstain; and exercise thy soul in righteousness.

4:8  For the exercise of the body a little time profiteth; but righteousness in every thing profiteth, and hath the promise of the life of this time, and of the future.

4:9  FAITHFUL is the saying and worthy is it of reception:

4:10  for on this account we labour and are reproached, because we hope in Aloha the Living, who is the Saviour of all men, and especially of the believers.

4:11  These teach and command.

4:12  And let no man despise thy youth; but be an example to the believers in word, and in conduct, and in charity, and in faith, and in purity.

4:13  Till I come be diligent in reading, and in prayer, and in teaching.

4:14  Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee with prophecy, and the hand-laying of the presbytery.

4:15  In these meditate, and in them be, that it may be known to every man that thou goest onward.

4:16  And take heed to thyself, and to thy doctrine, and persevere in them; for while these thou doest, thyself wilt thou save, and them who hear thee.
