| 1 | Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God`s elect, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness, | 1Ch 6:49 Ro 1:1 Php 1:1 |
| 2 | in hope of eternal life, which God, who can`t lie, promised before eternal times; | Tit 2:7 Tit 2:13 Tit 3:7 Jn 5:39 Jn 6:68 Ro 2:7 Ro 5:2 Ro 5:4 Col 1:27 1Th 5:8 2Ti 1:1 2Ti 2:10 1Pe 1:3 1Pe 1:4 1Jn 2:25 1Jn 3:2 1Jn 3:3 Jud 1:21 |
| 3 | but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God, our Savior; | Dn 8:23 Dn 9:24-27 Dn 10:1 Dn 11:27 Hab 2:3 Ac 17:26 Ro 5:6 Ga 4:4 Eph 1:10 1Ti 2:6 2Ti 1:10 |
| 4 | to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God, the Father, and the Lord, Jesus Christ, our Savior. | 2Co 2:13 2Co 7:6 2Co 7:13 2Co 7:14 2Co 8:6 2Co 8:16 2Co 8:23 2Co 12:18 Ga 2:3 |
| 5 | I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you; | 1Ti 1:3 |
| 6 | if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior. | 1Ti 3:2-7 |
| 7 | For the overseer must be blameless, as God`s steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain; | Tit 1:5 Php 1:1 1Ti 3:1 1Ti 3:2-13 |
| 8 | but given to hospitality, as a lover of good, sober-minded, fair, holy, self-controlled; | 1Ti 3:2 |
| 9 | holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him. | Jb 2:3 Jb 27:6 Pr 23:23 1Th 5:21 2Th 2:15 2Ti 1:13 Jud 1:3 Rev 2:25 Rev 3:3 Rev 3:11 |
| 10 | For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, | Ac 20:29 Ro 16:17-18 2Co 11:12-15 Eph 4:14 2Th 2:10-12 1Ti 1:4 1Ti 1:6 1Ti 6:3-5 2Ti 3:13 2Ti 4:4 Jm 1:26 2Pe 2:1 2Pe 2:2 1Jn 2:18 1Jn 4:1 Rev 2:6 Rev 2:14 |
| 11 | whose mouths must be stopped; men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain`s sake. | Tit 1:9 Tit 3:10 Ps 63:11 Ps 107:42 Ezk 16:63 Lk 20:40 Ro 3:19 2Co 11:10 |
| 12 | One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons." | Ac 17:28 |
| 13 | This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, | Tit 2:15 Pr 27:5 2Co 13:10 1Ti 5:20 2Ti 4:2 |
| 14 | not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth. | 1Ti 1:4-7 2Ti 4:4 |
| 15 | To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. | Lk 11:39-41 Ac 10:15 Ro 14:14 Ro 14:20 1Co 6:12 1Co 6:13 1Co 10:23 1Co 10:25 1Co 10:31 1Ti 4:3 1Ti 4:4 |
| 16 | They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work. | Nm 24:16 Isa 29:13 Isa 48:1 Isa 58:2 Ezk 33:31 Hos 8:2 Hos 8:3 Ro 2:18-24 2Ti 3:5-8 Jud 1:4 |
