Titus 3:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Titus 3:5

3 For ^awe ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.

4 But when ^athe kindness and the love of ^bGod our Savior toward man appeared,

5 ^anot by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through ^bthe washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

6 ^awhom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

7 that having been justified by His grace ^awe should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

8 ^aThis is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.

Avoid Dissension

9 But ^aavoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless.
