Titus 3(3 & 8): 14 Our people must learn to devote themselves to doing
what is good, in order to provide for urgent needs and not live unproductive
lives. (5)
258
9 But
avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about
the law, because these are unprofitable
and useless. (9)
10 Warn a divisive
person once, and then warn them a second
time.
After that, have nothing to do with them.
11 You may be sure
that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned.

15 Everyone
with me sends you greetings. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace
be with you all. (6)
369
6 whom
He poured out on us generously through
Jesus Christ our Savior, (6)
7 so that, having been justified by His Grace, we
might become heirs having the hope of Eternal Life.
8 This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to
stress these things, so that those who have trusted in GOD may be careful to devote
themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.

Final Remarks
12 As
soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at
Nicopolis, because I have decided to winter there. (3)
13 Do everything you can
to help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way and see that they have everything they need.

Saved in Order to
Do Good
1 Remind the people
to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do
whatever is good,
2 to slander no one,
to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone.
3 At
one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds
of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating
one another. (3)
4 But when the kindness and love of GOD our Savior
appeared,
5 He saved us, not because of righteous things we had
done, but because of His Mercy. He saved us
through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
