Top Highlights
“We were rescued by the kindness and the love of God. He reached out to us long before we reached out to Him.” (Titus 3:4–8)
“Holding fast the faithful word: This means first that the leader must be sure of the faithful word for himself. When he brings the word of God to people he must bring it with confidence and authority, not mixed with theological speculation and academic doubts.” (Titus 1:9a)
“This was especially needed in Crete, because the people of Crete were a wild bunch, well known as liars and lazy people. Titus had to find and train capable leaders for the Christians of the island of Crete.” (Titus 1:5)
“This is the life of the Eternal God living within us. It is present now, but will be completed later.” (Titus 1:2)
“This means also that the leader will stick to God’s word, instead of a focus on fads and programs for the church. If a man will not first stick to the word, and will not then stick with the word of God, he is not qualified for leadership in God’s church.” (Titus 1:9a)
