The Epistle of Paul to Titus

Chapter 3

American Standard Version

Tit 3:1	Put them in mind to be in subjection to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready unto every good work,
Tit 3:2	to speak evil of no man, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all meekness toward all men.
Tit 3:3	For we also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.
Tit 3:4	But when the kindness of God our Saviour, and his love toward man, appeared,
Tit 3:5	not by works done in righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
Tit 3:6	which he poured out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
Tit 3:7	that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Tit 3:8	Faithful is the saying, and concerning these things I desire that thou affirm confidently, to the end that they who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men:
Tit 3:9	but shun foolish questionings, and genealogies, and strifes, and fightings about law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Tit 3:10	A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse;
Tit 3:11	knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned.
Tit 3:12	When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, give diligence to come unto me to Nicopolis: for there I have determined to winter.
Tit 3:13	Set forward Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.
Tit 3:14	And let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
Tit 3:15	All that are with me salute thee. Salute them that love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
