# Titus 1 (New King James Version)
Greeting
##### Chapter 1
###### 1 Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect and the acknowledgment of the truth which accords with godliness,
###### 2 in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began,
###### 3 but has in due time manifested His word through preaching, which was committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior;
###### 4 To Titus, a true son in _our_ common faith:
Grace, mercy, _and_ peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.Qualified Elders
###### 5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you--
###### 6 if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of dissipation or insubordination.
###### 7 For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money,
###### 8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled,
###### 9 holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.The Elders' Task
###### 10 For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
###### 11 whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
###### 12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans _are_ always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons."
###### 13 This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
###### 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn from the truth.
###### 15 To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled.
###### 16 They profess to know God, but in works they deny _Him,_ being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.
