Paul now tells Timothy that "in latter times some will abandon the faith... and follow things taught by demons... these have consciences seared by a hot iron... they forbid people to marry... and order people to abstain from certain foods... but everything God created is good... so teach these things... and have nothing to do with godless myths or old wives' tales... train yourself to be godly... for we have put our hope in the living God who is the Saviour of all men, especially believers... so don't let anyone look down on you... but be an example in everything... and devote yourself to Scripture reading, preaching and teaching... give yourself wholly to them... for then you will save yourself and others".
