dby - Titus:1:5-16

dby@Titus:1:5 @ For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou mightest go on to set right what remained [unordered], and establish elders in each city, as I had ordered thee:

dby@Titus:1:6 @ if any one be free from all charge [against him], husband of one wife, having believing children not accused of excess or unruly.

dby@Titus:1:7 @ For the overseer must be free from all charge [against him] as God's steward; not headstrong, not passionate, not disorderly through wine, not a striker, not seeking gain by base means;

dby@Titus:1:8 @ but hospitable, a lover of goodness, discreet, just, pious, temperate,

dby@Titus:1:9 @ clinging to the faithful word according to the doctrine taught, that he may be able both to encourage with sound teaching and refute gainsayers.

dby@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many and disorderly vain speakers and deceivers of people's minds, specially those of [the] circumcision,

dby@Titus:1:11 @ who must have their mouths stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which ought not [to be taught] for the sake of base gain.

dby@Titus:1:12 @ One of themselves, a prophet of their own, has said, Cretans are always liars, evil wild beasts, lazy gluttons.

dby@Titus:1:13 @ This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them severely, that they may be sound in the faith,

dby@Titus:1:14 @ not turning [their] minds to Jewish fables and commandments of men turning away from the truth.

dby@Titus:1:15 @ All things [are] pure to the pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing [is] pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.

dby@Titus:1:16 @ They profess to know God, but in works deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and found worthless as to every good work.
