TIT 01:01 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness; TIT 01:02 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; TIT 01:03 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour; TIT 01:04 To Titus, [mine] own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour. TIT 01:05 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: TIT 01:06 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly. TIT 01:07 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; TIT 01:08 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; TIT 01:09 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. TIT 01:10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: TIT 01:11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. TIT 01:12 One of themselves, [even] a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians [are] alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. TIT 01:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; TIT 01:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. TIT 01:15 Unto the pure all things [are] pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving [is] nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. TIT 01:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. TIT 02:01 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: TIT 02:02 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. TIT 02:03 The aged women likewise, that [they be] in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; TIT 02:04 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, TIT 02:05 [To be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. TIT 02:06 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. TIT 02:07 In all things showing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine [showing] uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, TIT 02:08 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you. TIT 02:09 [Exhort] servants to be obedient unto their own masters, [and] to please [them] well in all [things]; not answering again; TIT 02:10 Not purloining, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things. TIT 02:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, TIT 02:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; TIT 02:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; TIT 02:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. TIT 02:15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee. TIT 03:01 Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, TIT 03:02 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, [but] gentle, showing all meekness unto all men. TIT 03:03 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, [and] hating one another. TIT 03:04 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, TIT 03:05 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; TIT 03:06 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; TIT 03:07 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. TIT 03:08 [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. TIT 03:09 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. TIT 03:10 A man that is an heretic after the first and second admonition reject; TIT 03:11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself. TIT 03:12 When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter. TIT 03:13 Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them. TIT 03:14 And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful. TIT 03:15 All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace [be] with you all. Amen.  ~~~~~~
