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.
