Scripture To Live By: 1 Timothy 4:1-5—¹Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. ²Speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, ³forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. ⁴For every creature of God is good and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving. ⁵For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
