In 1 Timothy 4:1 “Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons.

The Apostle Paul, who wrote the letter of 1 Timothy, was warning Timothy and other believers about false teachers and false teachings that would arise in the future. These false teachings would be propagated by “deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,” and would lead some people to depart from the faith.

The phrase “later times” is a reference to the end times, or the period of time leading up to the return of Christ. Paul is warning believers that these false teachings and teachers would be particularly prevalent during this time, and that they should be vigilant in guarding their faith against such deception.
