Titus 3
Titus 3:1 Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers,
to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,
2
To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all
meekness unto all men.
3 For we ourselves also were
sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and
pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our
Saviour toward man appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness
which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the
washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which
he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace,
we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou
affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be
careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable
unto men.
9 But avoid foolish questions, and
genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are
unprofitable and vain.
10 A man that is an heretick after the
first and second admonition reject;
11 Knowing that he that is
such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
12 When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come
unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.
13
Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that
nothing be wanting unto them.
14 And let ours also learn to
maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
15 All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the
faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
