Titus 2:11-15

Grace That Trains a Godly People

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone.

12 It instructs us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible, upright, and godly lives in the present age,

13 as we await the blessed hope and glorious appearance of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.

14 He gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

15 Speak these things as you encourage and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you.
