Instructions for Different Age Groups

Key Passages

About this Chapter

In this chapter, Paul gives instructions to different age groups in the church. He starts by urging Titus to teach sound doctrine to the older men and women, encouraging them to be temperate, self-controlled, and to set a good example for others. Paul also instructs the younger men to be self-controlled and to show integrity in all they do. He then addresses the younger women, urging them to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, and to be busy at home, so that they will not give the enemy any opportunity to slander the word of God. Lastly, Paul advises Titus to teach slaves to be subject to their masters and to please them in every way, showing them respect and not talking back. The key verse in this chapter is found in verse 11, where Paul reminds Titus and the believers that the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people. This grace teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in this present age. Overall, this chapter emphasizes the importance of living a godly life and setting a good example for others, regardless of age or social status. It reminds us that the grace of God empowers us to live in a way that pleases Him and reflects His character to the world.
