1st Timothy — 4
Warnings against False Teachers
1 Now the RUACH Ha'Qadash tells us clearly that in the latter times some will turn away from the true Amunah; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons.
2 These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.
3 They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods. But 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH created those foods to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
4 Since everything 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH created is good, we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks.
5 For we know it is made acceptable by the Dabar of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH and prayer.
A Good Servant of Ha'Mashyach
6 If you explain these things to the brothers and sisters, Timothy, you will be a worthy servant of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach, one who is nourished by the message of Amunah and the good teaching you have followed.
7 Do not waste time arguing over Unrighteous ideas and old wives’ tales. Instead, train yourself to be righteous.
8 “Physical training is good, but training for righteousness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come.”
9 This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it.
10 This is why we work hard and continue to struggle, for our hope is in the living 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, who is the Savior of all people and particularly of all believers.
11 Teach these things and insist that everyone learn them.
12 Do not let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your Amunah, and your purity.
13 Until I get there, focus on reading the Scriptures to the Qadash assembly, encouraging the believers, by teaching them.
14 Do not neglect the gift of the RUACH you received through the prophecy spoken over you when the elders of the Qadash Assembly laid their hands on you.
15 Give your complete attention to these matters. Throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone will see your progress.
16 Keep a close watch on how you live and on your teaching. Stay true to what is right for the sake of your own salvation and the salvation of those who hear you.
