A New Book!
Titus 1:1-4
"Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect and the acknowledgment of the truth which accords with godliness, in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began, but has in due time manifested His word through preaching, which was committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior;
To Titus, a true son in our common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior."
Paul is writing to Titus, who is on the island of Crete. Paul is between his first and second Roman imprisonments. Titus is Paul's helper and good friend.
These verses are easier to understand if we ask three questions:
What Paul does-----he teaches the truth
Why Paul does it--------- for hope of eternal life
How Paul does it----------he preaches
Obeying the Bible leads to a godly life.
