Proper Conduct
October 3rd, 2015. Filed under: Sabbath Scripture.
But as for you, speak things that are fitting for sound instruction. Older men are to be clear-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, in patience.
Likewise, older women are to be sanctified in demeanor – not backbiting or enslaved to much wine. Let them be teachers of what is good, so that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children to be self-controlled, pure, managing their household, kind, submitted to their own husbands, so that God’s word may not be dishonored.
Likewise urge the younger men to be self-controlled, in all things showing yourself to be an example of good deeds – integrity in instruction, dignity, sound speech beyond criticism – so that an opponent can be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.
Titus 2:1-8
