§. 5.

Nowe the Spirit speaketh euidently, that in the latter times some shall depart from the fayth, and shall giue heede vnto spirits of errour, and doctrines of deuils: vvhich speake lyes through hypocrisie, and haue theyr consciences burned with an hote y∣ron; forbidding to marry, and commaun∣ding to abstaine from meates, which God hath created to be receiued vvith giuing thanks, of them which beleeue and knowe the truth.

For, euery creature of God is good, and nothing ought to be refused, if it be recei∣ued with thanksgiuing. For, it is sanctified by the word of God, and prayer.

Yee therefore beloued, seeing yee know these things before, beware; least ye be al∣so plucked away vvith the errour of the wicked, and fall from your owne stedfast∣nesse.

For, of this sort are they vvhich creepe into houses, and leade captiue simple wo∣men laden with sinnes, and led with diuers lusts. VVhich vvomen are euer learning, and are neuer able to come to the know∣ledge of the truth.
