Titus 3:7-15

7so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

8The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are excellent and profitable for people.

9But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless.

10As for a person who stirs up division, after warning him once and then twice, have nothing more to do with him,

11knowing that such a person is warped and sinful; he is self-condemned.

12When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

13Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way; see that they lack nothing.

14And let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not be unfruitful.

15All who are with me send greetings to you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
