Titus is a short letter that packs a powerful message that we often over look.
But you should talk in a way that is consistent with sound teaching.
Titus 2:1a CEB
We shouldn't sound crazy when we teach the things of God. That would seem to make sense, but apparently some missed this part . . .
Talk about these things.
Titus 2:15a CEB
These things are faith, hope, love. These things are the things that make living a life worthy of the faith we claim. They are not legalism redone. The Pharisees already showed us that path. Apparently some missed the memo . . .
Avoid stupid controversies
Titus 3:9a CEB
Ooops! We missed this one as well.
How many churches have split over dumb stuff?
How many denominations split and divided over the non-essentials?
We still have time to get it right.
Perhaps as we approach the end of our journey reading the Bible this year, we need to commit to reading it all over again in 2012.
Maybe we missed something else . . .
