1 Timothy 4:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

False Asceticism

4 Now the Spirit expressly says that in later^[a] times some will renounce the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, ² through the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared with a hot iron. ³ They forbid marriage and demand abstinence from foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
