Let it roll brother, even if just one reads, it is worth it...

Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness; [SUP]2 [/SUP]In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; Titus 1:1-2

 

[MadebyHim]

Come back brother i'm not a teacher

 

[MadebyHim]

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

 

[BeyondET]

Come back brother i'm not a teacher

You can do it...

 

[MadebyHim]

Teacher made it

 

[oldhermit]

You can do it...

All I am going to do is present some generalization from the book and hope for some response.

 

[MadebyHim]

Just a warning mr hermit, i'm slow.

 

[MadebyHim]

Sounds good brother

 

[oldhermit]

Then look for a new thread titled TITUS

Just a warning mr hermit, i'm slow.

You were "faster" than we were!

You started with no one prompting you

 

[MadebyHim]

Oh i see this is the question thread

 

[MadebyHim]

Hope i didn't make hermit mad, messing up his thread

 

[MadebyHim]

Going to see if i can find Titus thread

 

[MadebyHim]

[SUP]3 [/SUP]But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
[SUP]4 [/SUP]To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
[SUP]6 [/SUP]If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly. Titus 1:3-6

Counts me out

 

[MadebyHim]

my children have been unruly

 

[MadebyHim]

as the old saying goes apple doesn't fall far from tree. remember mom saying she hoped our kids would be worse than us?

 

[MadebyHim]

[SUP]7 [/SUP]For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
[SUP]8 [/SUP]But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
[SUP]9 [/SUP]Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
[SUP]10 [/SUP]For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
[SUP]11 [/SUP]Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.


Forgive me for being a smart alec Oldhermit, don't let me ruin it for others.
