1. Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness,
|

2. in the hope of eternal life that God, who cannot lie, promised before time began.
|

3. In his own time he has revealed his word in the preaching with which I was entrusted by the command of God our Savior:

Titus's Ministry in Crete
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. The reason I left you in Crete was to set right what was left undone and, as I directed you, to appoint elders in every town.
|
||||
6. An elder must be blameless, the husband of one wife, with faithful children who are not accused of wildness or rebellion.
|
||||
7. As an overseer of God's household, he must be blameless, not arrogant, not hot-tempered, not an excessive drinker, not a bully, not greedy for money,
|
||||
8. but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, righteous, holy, self-controlled,
|
||||
9. holding to the faithful message as taught, so that he will be able both to encourage with sound teaching and to refute those who contradict it.
|
||||
|
||||
10. For there are many rebellious people, full of empty talk and deception, especially those from the circumcision party.
|
||||
11. It is necessary to silence them; they are ruining entire households by teaching what they shouldn't in order to get money dishonestly.
|
||||
12. One of their very own prophets said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons."
|
||||
13. This testimony is true. For this reason, rebuke them sharply, so that they may be sound in the faith
|
||||
14. and may not pay attention to Jewish myths and the commands of people who reject the truth.
|
||||
|
||||
15. To the pure, everything is pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; in fact, both their mind and conscience are defiled.
|
||||
16. They claim to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.

# Chapter 2
|

1. But you are to proclaim things consistent with sound teaching.
|
||||
2. Older men are to be self-controlled, worthy of respect, sensible, and sound in faith, love, and endurance.
|
||||
3. In the same way, older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not slaves to excessive drinking. They are to teach what is good,
|
||||
4. so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands and to love their children,
|
||||
5. to be self-controlled, pure, workers at home, kind, and in submission to their husbands, so that God's word will not be slandered.
|
||||
|
||||
6. In the same way, encourage the young men to be self-controlled
|
||||
7. in everything. Make yourself an example of good works with integrity and dignity in your teaching.
|
||||
8. Your message is to be sound beyond reproach, so that any opponent will be ashamed, because he doesn't have anything bad to say about us.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Slaves are to submit to their masters in everything, and to be well-pleasing, not talking back
|
||||
10. or stealing, but demonstrating utter faithfulness, so that they may adorn the teaching of God our Savior in everything.
|
||||
|
||||
11. For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people,
|
||||
12. instructing us to deny godlessness and worldly lusts and to live in a sensible, righteous, and godly way in the present age,
|
||||
13. while we wait for the blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
|
||||
14. He gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people for his own possession, eager to do good works.
|
||||
|
||||
15. Proclaim these things; encourage and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

# Chapter 3
|

1. Remind them to submit to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,
|
||||
2. to slander no one, to avoid fighting, and to be kind, always showing gentleness to all people.
|
||||
3. For we too were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved by various passions and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, detesting one another.
|
||||
|
||||
4. But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,
|
||||
5. he saved us--not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy--through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
|
||||
6. He poured out his Spirit on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior
|
||||
7. so that, having been justified by his grace, we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.
|
||||
8. This saying is trustworthy. I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed God might be careful to devote themselves to good works. These are good and profitable for everyone.
|
||||
9. But avoid foolish debates, genealogies, quarrels, and disputes about the law, because they are unprofitable and worthless.
|
||||
10. Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning.
|
||||
11. For you know that such a person has gone astray and is sinning; he is self-condemned.

13. Diligently help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey, so that they will lack nothing.
|
||||
|
||||
14. Let our people learn to devote themselves to good works for pressing needs, so that they will not be unfruitful.
