2Through the false ways of men whose words are untrue, whose hearts are burned as with a heated iron;
3Who keep men from being married and from taking food which God made to be taken with praise by those who have faith and true knowledge.
4Because everything which God has made is good, and nothing is evil, if it is taken with praise:
5For it is made holy by the word of God and by prayer.
6If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:
7But have nothing to do with unclean and foolish stories. Give yourself training in religion:
8For the training of the body is of profit for a little, but religion is of profit in every way, giving hope for the life which now is, and for that which is to come.
