Some Will Fall Away
4 But (A)the Spirit explicitly says that (B)in later times some will [a]fall away from the faith, paying attention to (C)deceitful spirits and (D)doctrines of demons, 2 by the hypocrisy of liars, who have been (E)seared in their own conscience, 3 who (F)forbid marriage and advocate (G)abstaining from foods which (H)God created to be shared in (I)with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For (J)everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is (K)received with thanksgiving, 5 for it is sanctified by (L)the word of God and prayer.

1 Timothy 4:1-5
American Standard Version
4 But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, [a]branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron; 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it be received with thanksgiving: 5 for it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.
