Chapter 4
I Ti OrthJBC 4:1  Now the Ruach HaKodesh says befeirush and in no uncertain terms that in the acharit hayamim some will become meshummad (apostate) from the emunah [of Moshiach], giving heed to deceitful ruchot (spirits) and teachings of shedim,
I Ti OrthJBC 4:2  through the tzevi'ut (hypocrisy) of ones [morim] speaking sheker, the matzpun of whom is seared as with a branding iron.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:3  Such will forbid nisu'im (marriage), commanding hinnazerut (abstinence) from that which Hashem created for partaking with todah by the ma'aminim in Moshiach and by the ones who know haEmes,
I Ti OrthJBC 4:4  because the whole Bri'ah (Creation) that Hashem has created is tov [Bereshis 1:4,10,12,18,21,25,31] and nothing is to be rejected that is received with todah.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:5  For it is being set apart as kadosh through the dvar Hashem and tefillos and berachot. A GOOD K'LI KODESH OF MOSHIACH
I Ti OrthJBC 4:6  By presenting these things to the achim [in Moshiach] you will be a good k'li kodesh (minister) of Moshiach Yehoshua, you will be one nourished with the divrei haEmunah and the torah yeshara (straight teaching) which you have followed.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:7  But the worldly aggadot and bubbemeises (old wives tales), refuse. Rather, train yourself [1:4] for chassidus [in Moshiach].
I Ti OrthJBC 4:8  For hitammelut (bodily exercise) is kedai (profitable) a bissle, but chassidus [in Moshiach] is profitable in every way, holding havtachah (promise) of Chayyim now in Olam Hazeh, and, later, of Olam Habah.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:9  The dvar Emes is trustworthy and worthy of all acceptance.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:10  For to this end we labor and strive at the melocha (task), because we have set tikvateynu in the EL CHAI [Yehoshua 3:10] who is Moshi'a (Savior) of kol Bnei Adam, that is, the ma'aminim [in Moshiach].
I Ti OrthJBC 4:12  Let no one despise your youth, but become a mofet (example) for the ma'aminim [in Moshiach] in loshon (speech), in hitnahagut (conduct), in ahavah, in emunah, and in lev tahor.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:13  Until I come, attend to the keri'ah betzibbur (congregational public reading) of the Kitvei Hakodesh, attend to the hattafah (preaching) and to the hora'ah (teaching).
I Ti OrthJBC 4:14  Do not neglect the mattanah (gift) in you which was given to you by means of nevu'ah (prophecy) with the s'michah administered by the Ziknei haKehillah.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:15  Put these things into practice, that your progress in shomer masoret (religious devotion) may be manifest to all.
I Ti OrthJBC 4:16  Be shomer both toward yourself and toward your hora'ah, and be arain getun (engrossed, torud [completely absorbed and involved]) in this, for, by so doing, you will come to Yeshu'at Eloheynu, and this means not only you yourself but also those who hear your hattafah [about Moshiach].
