I Timothy 4:1

Now the Spirit manifestly saith, *that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils,

2 Timothy 3:3.; 1 Peter 4:3.; Jude 1:1.; Jude 1:18.

In the last times. Literally, last days; that is hereafter, or in days to come. --- To spirits of error and doctrines of devils; or, to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils, as in the Protestant translation. The sense must be, that men shall teach false doctrine by the suggestion of the devil. (Witham)
