神 是萬人的救主,更是信徒的救主 -- 使徒保羅寫信指教弟子提摩太 (提摩太前書, 第四章)

提摩太前書
 
第四章
 
預言日後有人背道
 1 聖靈明明地說,日後必有人離棄信仰,跟從虛謊的邪靈和鬼魔的教訓。
 2 這教訓是出於說謊的人的虛偽,他們的良心好像被燒紅的鐵烙了一般。
 3 他們禁止嫁娶,禁戒食物。食物本是 神所造的,是給信主和認識真理的人存感謝的心領受的。
 4 因為凡 神所造的,都是好的,隻要存感謝的心領受,沒有一樣是可以棄絕的;
 5 都因著 神的道和人的祈求成為聖潔了。
 
要作信徒的榜樣
 6 你若把這些事提醒弟兄們,就是基督耶穌的好僕役,常在信仰的話語上,和你所遵從美善的教訓上得著培養。
 7 總要棄絕世俗以及老婦的無稽之談;要操練自己達到敬虔的地步。
 8 因為操練身體,益處還少;唯獨操練敬虔,凡事有益,享有今生和來世的應許
 9 這話是可信的,是值得完全接納的。
 10 我們也是為這緣故勞苦努力,因為我們的盼望在於永活的 神。他是萬人的救主,更是信徒的救主
 11 這些事你要囑咐人,教導人。
 12 不要叫人小看你年輕,總要在言語、行為、愛心、信心和純潔上,都作信徒的榜樣。
 13 在我來以前,你要專心宣讀聖經、勸勉和教導。
 14 不要忽略你所得的恩賜,就是眾長老按手時藉著預言賜給你的。
 15 這些事你要認真實行,專心去作,使眾人看出你的長進來。
 16 你要謹慎自己,留心自己的教訓。在這些事上要有恆心,因為你這樣作,不但能救自己,也能救那些聽你的人。

1 Timothy 4

Instructions to Timothy
 1The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 2Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 3They 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. 4For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.

 6If you point these things out to the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, brought up in the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed. 7Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. 8For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

 9This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance 10(and for this we labor and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe.

 11Command and teach these things. 12Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching. 14Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through a prophetic message when the body of elders laid their hands on you.

 15Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress. 16Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.
