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.
10 aReject a divisive man after the first and second1 admonition,
