| 1 | Now the Spirit speaketh expresly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giuing heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of deuils: |
| 2 | Speaking lies in hypocrisie, hauing their conscience seared with a hote iron, |
| 3 | Forbidding to marry, and commanding to absteine from meates, which God hath created to bee receiued with thankesgiuing of them which beleeue, and know the trueth. |
| 4 | For euery creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be receiued with thankesgiuing: |
| 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 Iesus Christ, nourished vp in the wordes of faith, and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. |
| 7 | But refuse prophane and olde wiues fables, and exercise thy selfe rather vnto godlinesse. |
| 8 | For bodily exercise profiteth litle, but godlinesse is profitable vnto all things, hauing 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 therfore we both labour, and suffer reproch, because we trust in the liuing God, who is the Sauiour of all men, specially of those that beleeue. |
| 11 | These things command & teach. |
| 12 | Let no man despise thy youth, but be thou an example of the beleeuers, in word, in conuersation, in charitie, in spirit, in faith, in puritie. |
| 13 | Till I come, giue attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. |
| 14 | Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was giuen thee by prophesie, with the laying on of the hands of the Presbyterie. |
| 15 | Meditate vpon these things, giue thy selfe wholly to them, that thy profiting may appeare to all. |
| 16 | Take heed vnto thy selfe, and vnto the doctrine: continue in them: for in doing this, thou shalt both saue thy selfe, and them that heare thee. |
