,this e,book was produced by ,david ,widger with the help of ,derek ,andrew's text from ,january #aiib and the work of ,bryan ,taylor in ,november #bjjb4 ,book #ef ,titus #ef3jja3jja ,paul1 a servant of ,god1 and an apostle of ,jesus ,christ1 according to the faith of ,god's elect1 and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness2 #ef3jja3jjb ,in hope of eternal life1 which ,god1 that cannot lie1 promised before the world began2 #ef3jja3jjc ,but hath in due times manifested his word through preaching1 which is committed unto me according to the commandment of ,god our ,saviour2 #ef3jja3jjd ,to ,titus1 mine own son after the common faith3 ,grace1 mercy1 and peace1 from ,god the ,father and the ,lord ,jesus ,christ our ,saviour4 #ef3jja3jje ,for this cause left ,i thee in ,crete1 that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting1 and ordain elders in every city1 as ,i had appointed thee3 #ef3jja3jjf ,if any be blameless1 the husband of one wife1 having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly4 #ef3jja3jjg ,for a bishop must be blameless1 as the steward of ,god2 not selfwilled1 not soon angry1 not given to wine1 no striker1 not given to filthy lucre2 #ef3jja3jjh ,but a lover of hospitality1 a lover of good men1 sober1 just1 holy1 temperate2 #ef3jja3jji ,holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught1 that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers4 #ef3jja3jaj ,for there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers1 specially they of the circumcision3 #ef3jja3jaa ,whose mouths must be stopped1 who subvert whole houses1 teaching things which they ought not1 for filthy lucre's sake4 #ef3jja3jab ,one of themselves1 even a prophet of their own1 said1 ,the ,cretians are alway liars1 evil beasts1 slow bellies4 #ef3jja3jac ,this witness is true4 ,wherefore rebuke them sharply1 that they may be sound in the faith2 #ef3jja3jad ,not giving heed to ,jewish fables1 and commandments of men1 that turn from the truth4 #ef3jja3jae ,unto the pure all things are pure3 but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure2 but even their mind and conscience is defiled4 #ef3jja3jaf ,they profess that they know ,god2 but in works they deny him1 being abominable1 and disobedient1 and unto every good work reprobate4 #ef3jjb3jja ,but speak thou the things which become sound doctrine3 #ef3jjb3jjb ,that the aged men be sober1 grave1 temperate1 sound in faith1 in charity1 in patience4 #ef3jjb3jjc ,the aged women likewise1 that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness1 not false accusers1 not given to much wine1 teachers of good things2 #ef3jjb3jjd ,that they may teach the young women to be sober1 to love their husbands1 to love their children1 #ef3jjb3jje ,to be discreet1 chaste1 keepers at home1 good1 obedient to their own husbands1 that the word of ,god be not blasphemed4 #ef3jjb3jjf ,young men likewise exhort to be sober minded4 #ef3jjb3jjg ,in all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works3 in doctrine shewing uncorruptness1 gravity1 sincerity1 #ef3jjb3jjh ,sound speech1 that cannot be condemned2 that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed1 having no evil thing to say of you4 #ef3jjb3jji ,exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters1 and to please them well in all things2 not answering again2 #ef3jjb3jaj ,not purloining1 but shewing all good fidelity2 that they may adorn the doctrine of ,god our ,saviour in all things4 #ef3jjb3jaa ,for the grace of ,god that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men1 #ef3jjb3jab ,teaching us that1 denying ungodliness and worldly lusts1 we should live soberly1 righteously1 and godly1 in this present world2 #ef3jjb3jac ,looking for that blessed hope1 and the glorious appearing of the great ,god and our ,saviour ,jesus ,christ2 #ef3jjb3jad ,who gave himself for us1 that he might redeem us from all iniquity1 and purify unto himself a peculiar people1 zealous of good works4 #ef3jjb3jae ,these things speak1 and exhort1 and rebuke with all authority4 ,let no man despise thee4 #ef3jjc3jja ,put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers1 to obey magistrates1 to be ready to every good work1 #ef3jjc3jjb ,to speak evil of no man1 to be no brawlers1 but gentle1 shewing all meekness unto all men4 #ef3jjc3jjc ,for we ourselves also were sometimes foolish1 disobedient1 deceived1 serving divers lusts and pleasures1 living in malice and envy1 hateful1 and hating one another4 #ef3jjc3jjd ,but after that the kindness and love of ,god our ,saviour toward man appeared1 #ef3jjc3jje ,not by works of righteousness which we have done1 but according to his mercy he saved us1 by the washing of regeneration1 and renewing of the ,holy ,ghost2 #ef3jjc3jjf ,which he shed on us abundantly through ,jesus ,christ our ,saviour2 #ef3jjc3jjg ,that being justified by his grace1 we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life4 #ef3jjc3jjh ,this is a faithful saying1 and these things ,i will that thou affirm constantly1 that they which have believed in ,god might be careful to maintain good works4 ,these things are good and profitable unto men4 #ef3jjc3jji ,but avoid foolish questions1 and genealogies1 and contentions1 and strivings about the law2 for they are unprofitable and vain4 #ef3jjc3jaj ,a man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject2 #ef3jjc3jaa ,knowing that he that is such is subverted1 and sinneth1 being condemned of himself4 #ef3jjc3jab ,when ,i shall send ,artemas unto thee1 or ,tychicus1 be diligent to come unto me to ,nicopolis3 for ,i have determined there to winter4 #ef3jjc3jac ,bring ,zenas the lawyer and ,apollos on their journey diligently1 that nothing be wanting unto them4 #ef3jjc3jad ,and let our's also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses1 that they be not unfruitful4 #ef3jjc3jae ,all that are with me salute thee4 ,greet them that love us in the faith4 ,grace be with you all4 ,amen4
