1 Timothy 4:1
But the Spirit says clearly that in later times some will be turned away from the faith, giving their minds to spirits of deceit, and the teachings of evil spirits,
1 Timothy 4:2
Through the false ways of men whose words are untrue, whose hearts are burned as with a heated iron;
2 Timothy 3:2
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, uplifted in pride, given to bitter words, going against the authority of their fathers, never giving praise, having no religion,
2 Timothy 4:3
For the time will come when they will not take the true teaching; but, moved by their desires, they will get for themselves a great number of teachers for the pleasure of hearing them;

I am conscious that after I am gone, evil wolves will come in among you, doing damage to the flock;
1 John 4:3
And every spirit which does not say this is not from God: this is the spirit of Antichrist, of which you have had word; and it is in the world even now.
2 Corinthians 11:13
For such men are false Apostles, workers of deceit, making themselves seem like Apostles of Christ.

Because everything which God has made is good, and nothing is evil, if it is taken with praise:

But if I give praise to God for the food which I take, let no man say evil of me for that reason.

-----
Colossians 2:20
If you were made free, by your death with Christ, from the rules of the world, why do you put yourselves under the authority of orders

Which say there may be no touching, tasting, or taking in your hands,
Colossians 2:22
(Rules which are all to come to an end with their use) after the orders and teaching of men?

-----

Let married life be honoured among all of you and not made unclean; for men untrue in married life will be judged by God.

So it is my desire that the younger widows may be married and have children, controlling their families, and giving the Evil One no chance to say anything against them,

2 Corinthians 11:15
So it is no great thing if his servants make themselves seem to be servants of righteousness; whose end will be the reward of their works.

-----
1 Timothy 4:6
If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:
1 Timothy 4:7
But have nothing to do with unclean and foolish stories. Give yourself training in religion:
1 Timothy 4:8
For the training of the body is of profit for a little, but religion is of profit in every way, giving hope for the life which now is, and for that which is to come.
1 Timothy 1:3
It was my desire, when I went on into Macedonia, that you might make a stop at Ephesus, to give orders to certain men not to put forward a different teaching,
1 Timothy 1:4
Or to give attention to stories and long lists of generations, from which come questionings and doubts, in place of God's ordered way of life which is in faith;
1 Timothy 6:3
If any man gives different teaching, not in agreement with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the teaching which is in agreement with true religion,
1 Timothy 6:4
He has an over-high opinion of himself; being without knowledge, having only an unhealthy love of questionings and wars of words, from which come envy, fighting, cruel words, evil thoughts,
2 Timothy 2:17
And their words will be like poisoned wounds in the flesh: such are Hymenaeus and Philetus;
2 Timothy 2:18
Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.
1 Timothy 1:6
From which some have been turned away, giving themselves to foolish talking;
1 Timothy 1:7
Desiring to be teachers of the law, though they have no knowledge of what they say or of the statements which they make so certainly.

Giving no attention to the fictions of the Jews and the rules of men who have no true knowledge.

One man has faith to take all things as food: another who is feeble in faith takes only green food.
Romans 14:3
Let not him who takes food have a low opinion of him who does not: and let not him who does not take food be a judge of him who does; for he has God's approval.
1 Corinthians 10:23
We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

But in taking this view they put out of their minds the memory that in the old days there was a heaven, and an earth lifted out of the water and circled by water, by the word of God;

2 Thessalonians 2:9
Even the one whose coming is marked by the working of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,
2 Thessalonians 2:10
And with every deceit of wrongdoing among those whose fate is destruction; because they were quite without that love of the true faith by which they might have salvation.
