    Bible Study: Titus 3

    Bible Study: Titus 3

    Titus, chapter three. Now in chapter two, Paul has instructed Titus to teach the things, which become sound doctrine. Teach the older men. Teach the older women. Teach the young women and teach the young men. So he is telling him the various things that he should teach to the special age and sex groups. But then, sort of putting them altogether in chapter three, he said:

    Put them And the them would include the whole group—young men, old men, young women, older women.

    Teach or put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, Three things, subject to the principalities and powers, and then, obeying magistrates, and third, be ready to every good work.

    Devotional: March 1

    Devotional: March 1

    “But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear.” (Matthew 13:16)

    When you became a Christian, God gave you spiritual sight and hearing so you could begin experiencing His presence and activity all around you. The Holy Spirit helps you to develop these spiritual senses as you walk with Him. Spiritual sensitivity to God is a gift that must be accepted and exercised. Scripture indicates that those who are spiritually dead cannot see or understand spiritual things (Matt. 13:14-15).

    Without spiritual eyes, you can be right in the midst of a mighty act of God and not recognize it. There is a radical difference between seeing your surroundings from a human perspective and seeing life through spiritual eyes. Non-Christians will see world events around them and become confused. You will look at the same events, recognize the activity of God, and adjust your life to Him. When you meet a person who is seeking God, you will recognize the convicting work of the Holy Spirit and adjust your life to God’s activity (Rom. 3:11).
