Letter Of Paul To Titus

When we focus on the letter of Paul to Titus, we see a lot of characteristics of how a healthy church should be with healthy leadership that expatiates on the gospel, nurtures an understanding and have a deep belief in the gospel and lives out the gospel in daily life. All what Paul wrote in this letter many years ago is also out to encourage us, to strengthen us, to correct us, to rebuke us for the purpose of growing maturely in the gospel of grace. We can remember how Paul persecuted the church before becoming an apostle, therefore as he journeyed during his missionary journeys, he wrote letters back to churches he had started and Titus being one of his convert also received a letter from him for the church in Crete. We should remember, Paul and Timothy left Titus
They were to live their lives corporately and individually in a way that the community will see and acknowledge them as children of God. Just as we got in the gospels, you cannot light a candle and put it under a table to shine; you must place it on top on a table to bring out light. They were to shine as the light of the world. A city on a hill can never be hidden. The main theme we have in the book of Titus is good works, that is, exemplary character for the sake of our audience. I believe Christ died for us so that our lives can be transformed and be people who are zealous for good works (Eph 2:10). This letter was written to a small church that was still growing with new converts and needed some discipleship for the Christians to grow in grace resisting temptation and worldliness. It is very essential for us to always study this letter and try to practice all what Paul said to Titus. Even the churches today that have grown in numbers, some of them are still not healthy spiritually because a lot of worldliness has crept into the church. Many have been taken away from the truth and they are out there going after
