Titus 3 · Grade 4
Renewed by the Holy Spirit
Read and Think
Paul tells Titus to remind believers to obey rulers and authorities and be ready for every good work. They should speak evil of no one, avoid quarrels, and be gentle, showing humility toward all people.
Paul remembers that we were once foolish and disobedient. Wrong desires led us astray. We were full of envy and hate. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us. It was not because of good things we had done, but because of His mercy. He washed us, gave us new birth, and made us new by the Holy Spirit. God gave the Spirit to us generously through Jesus Christ. His grace made us right with God. Now we are heirs with the hope of eternal life.
Paul tells Titus to stress these things, so believers will be careful to do good works. They should avoid foolish arguments, which are useless. If someone keeps causing division after two warnings, Titus should have nothing more to do with him. Paul asks Titus to come to him at Nicopolis and to help Zenas and Apollos on their way.

Think About It
Paul says God saved us because of His mercy, not our good works. Why is it good news that salvation depends on God and not on us?
Paul tells believers to be gentle and humble toward all people. Who is someone you could show more gentleness to?
