¹ Paul a seruant of God, and an Apostle of Iesus Christ, according to the Faith of Gods Elect, and the acknowledging of the trueth which is after godlinesse,

² In hope of eternall life, which God that cannot lie, promised before the world began:

³ But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed vnto mee according to the commandement of God our Sauiour:

⁴ To Titus mine owne Sonne after the common faith, Grace, mercie, and peace from God the Father, and the Lord Iesus Christ our Sauiour.

⁵ For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordaine Elders in euery citie, as I had appointed thee.

⁶ If any be blamelesse, the husband of one wife, hauing faithfull children, not accused of riot, or vnruly.

⁷ For a Bishop must be blameles, as the steward of God: not selfewilled, not soone angry, not giuen to wine, no striker, not giuen to filthie lucre,

⁸ But a louer of hospitality, a louer of good men, sober, iust, holy, temperate,

⁹ Holding fast the faithfull word, as hee hath beene taught, that he may bee able by sound doctrine, both to exhort and to conuince the gainsayers.

¹⁰ For there are many vnruly and vaine talkers and deceiuers, specially they of the circumcision:

¹¹ Whose mouthes must be stopped, who subuert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthie lucres sake.

¹² One of themselues, euen a Prophet of their owne, said: The Cretians are alway lyers, euill beasts, slow bellies.

¹³ This witnesse is true: wherefore rebuke them sharpely that they may be sound in the faith;

¹⁴ Not giuing heede to Iewish fables, and commandements of men that turne from the trueth.

¹⁵ Unto the pure all things are pure, but vnto them that are defiled, and vnbeleeuing, is nothing pure: but euen their mind and conscience is defiled.

¹⁶ They professe that they know God; but in workes they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and vnto euery good worke reprobate.

If God can forgive us that far in Christ, we should love him.

This scripture truly states how you can identify true worshippers of God and his son Jesus Christ. You have to have true respect of the bible as the word of God.

This chapter is not talking about traditions that do not affect doctrine, but instructs us to be discerning any idea that wars against our faith.

Deedee's Titus Chapter 1 comment about verse 14 on 11/28/2012, 2:06pm...

I believe it includes Christmas trees/santa chunnukah.. All the Judaism, paganism and the Christian paganism..Santa is also a fable and Yeshua was not born during Christmas.

@Maku,
A polygamist can sure believe and accept Jesus Christ as his lord and savior, and get saved.
However, in the light of this chapter, that one will not be entitled to leadership responsibilities, unless he demises with polygamy.
God bless you.

It is a good book. Can I get Titus 1:6 explained. Is it only elders and deacons should't have more than one wife or all Christians. If someone is a polygamist before conversion than what? Can such one believe in Jesus?

Timothy Wayne George's Titus Chapter 1 comment on 8/09/2012, 8:25am...

I thank the Lord that He restores my soul, and that even though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of all strong holds. To Cindy, ye we must confess our sin, and God is faithful and just to forgive us our sin, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Paul has given instruction about Elders, and they are to be blameless, the husband of one wife, not given to wine. We must be temperate in all things, and live a holy life. In Crete, the people were given to lying, and living unholy. God is light, and in him, there is no darkness. If we walk in the light, as He is in the light, the blood of Jesus will cleanse us of all sin. So walk in the light as children of God.

Cindy's Titus Chapter 1 comment on 8/08/2012, 7:52pm...

Thank the Lord for instruction. I am so glad that we are not left to rule however we'd like, we have guidelines to use. On another note let's please remember that none of are above sin and all of us have not always been completely right with God so when someone admits to having been backslidden and has reconciled with God there isno need to throw that back in their face. I admire the honesty of this dear sister in Christ and God is pleased with her honesty. We are to confess our sin and ask forgiveness, right?
