Titus 2:11-14; 3:4-7 (Royal Hours: 9th Hour)
11 |
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, |
12 |
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, |
13 |
looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, |
14 |
who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works. |
4 |
But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, |
5 |
not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, |
6 |
whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, |
7 |
that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. |
