Titus

In spite of a number of audio glitches and internet issues, we finally got this episode published!

We conclude our study in the book of Titus with chapter 3, and a focus on how to live as godly believers in an increasingly ungodly culture. The competing thoughts in Cretian churches at this time were to either run from culture or embrace it. Paul encouraged Titus to teach them to meet the culture head on as a shining light of what the Gospel really can do in a person’s life. From kindness, to humility in light of our pre-salvation lives, Paul covers many aspects of living in such a faithless world.

Spoilers for the first two episodes of The Mandalorian are also discussed, along with Disney+ as a whole. We also wax eloquent on the finer points of pico de gallo.

After some technical mishaps, Curt & Kreig finally wrap up chapter two of Titus talking about verses 11-15. This section is really the climax of the chapter, and underlines how the Gospel is the reason why any of the do’s and don’t’s in the Bible have any bearing at all. These verses also give us an excellent look at the threefold reality of our salvation: justification, sanctification, and glorification.

Curt also gets up to his old bonnet-wearing antics, and Kreig dishes about the best starter Pokemon.

Our marathon recording session in Titus 2:1-10 concludes with this look at verses 5-10. While God has a lot to say to the older generations in the church, he also has quite a list of Spirit-empowered traits for the younger believers to embody. From the role of wife, husband, or even just employee, God wants his people to glorify Him in their place in life. While modern society downplays the differences between men and women as sexism, the Bible elevates women and men in their different but equally important roles in the home. He also has eye on those who society would deem to be at the bottom of the ladder of success, noting that they, too, are a valuable part of His church.

Titus 2 is rich with instruction, but it’s all wrapped in the understanding that Jesus is the only One Who can give us the ability to perform that which He’s set before us to do. For His glory, with His help, we can live a life that leads others to Him.

After quite a long break, we’re back in the book of Titus, looking at chapter two.

Chapter 2 moves from instruction for Titus to the instruction Titus should be reinforcing to the churches. Paul has instruction for every demographic in the church, and he starts off with the older believers. Those who are mature in age and in the faith are intended to set the tone and lead the way for the younger generations, but that wasn’t happening in Crete.

This recording session ran so full of content that we had to break it into two episodes, so this represents the first 30-minute block of recording from that. In the first few verse of the chapter, we see the specific charge to the elders (in age) at the Cretian churches.
