3 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by them who believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if received with thanksgiving:
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God, and prayer.
6 If thou shalt put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou wilt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished by the words of faith and of good doctrine, to which thou hast attained.
7 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself [rather] to godliness.
