1 Timothy 4:5 In-Context
3
They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth.
4
For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
5
because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.
6
If you point these things out to the brothers and sisters, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.
7
Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.
