Titus 2:1
1 But [de] speak [laleo] thou [su] the things which [hos] become [prepo] sound [hugiaino] doctrine [didaskalia]: KJV-Interlinear
2 But as for you, speak the
things which are fitting for sound doctrine. NASB
Yesterday, we closed
the chapter with a question concerning your mental toughness.
How would you react if
the whole world was against you?Well,
for most folks they would fall apart in tears or worse.
The absolute worst possible
scenario in life would be if the whole world was against you and God was
against you as well. That would mean
that you were in a pretty dark situation, with absolutely no solution.Not a good position to find yourself in!
But ask yourself this
question.If the whole world was for you
and supported you, but God was against you, would you win?
And
another question.If the whole world was against you, but God
was for you, then what would be the outcome of your life?
The policies of the
world are Satan s policies.And those
policies, which we call evil, are in complete opposition to the policies of
God.
Unfortunately, the
policies of Satan, are right in front of us and they
are there for instant gratification, instant evaluation, something that we can
see and touch, and they are there to distract us away from God.
Gods policies require an exercise of faith in order to
possess them, and faith is just too elusive.
Faith requires maturity,
which requires growing up, which requires learning, and application of facts to
reality, which requires time and patience in order to accomplish.And who has the time or the patience for
something that is terribly elusive?
Oh, and the answer to
the questions above, which you already know, are that you would lose terribly
when you set yourself against God, even if the whole world is behind you.
Likewise if the world
sets itself totally against you, but you align yourself with God, then the
world is really no match for you.With
God in control of your life, your victory in life is certain.
Paul has given Titus
instructions for selecting people to lead the Christian faith in Crete.Titus was also warned that the culture there
was less than desirable.
Conforming with the undesirables was not an option.Conforming with the
culture was not an option.Conforming with how things were done there, was not an option.
The only option for
living ones life, is through sound uncompromised,
untainted doctrine.
