Introduction

Titus is instructed to teach various church members how they are to live as God’s people. People are to give up ungodly living while awaiting the blessed Day when the glory of God will appear.

For God has revealed his grace for the salvation of all people.

Today’s Reading

Reflect

The household management instructions in verses 2-10 reflect the Greco-Roman culture of the first century. What are your thoughts about these instructions? Are any of them relevant for today? What specific instructions are directed to Titus (verses 7, 8)? Reread verses 11-14. What do they teach you about God’s salvation and how one is to live?

Pray

Holy God, my Lord and Savior, teach me to be an example of good behavior and to live a godly life in this world while awaiting the blessed Day when your glory will appear. Amen.
