CHAP. I.
6 He sheweth what kinde of men ought to be chosen Ministers:
10 how vaine babblers mouthes should be stopped: 12 and
through this occasion he toucheth the nature of the Cretians,
14 and the Iewes who put holinesse in outward things.
1 Paul note a note seruaunt of God, and an
Apostle of Iesus Christ, according
to the faith of Gods note elect, note and
the acknowledging of the trueth,
which is according vnto godlines,
2 Vnto the note hope of eternall
life, which God that cannot lie, hath note promised
before the note note world began:
3 noteBut hath made his worde manifest in due
time through the preaching, which is note committed
vnto me, according to the commandement of
God our note Sauiour:
4 noteTo Titus my naturall sonne according to
the common faith, note Grace, mercie and peace
from God the Father, and from the Lorde Iesus
Christ our Sauiour.
5 noteFor this cause left I thee in Creta, that
thou shouldest continue to redresse the thinges
that remaine, and shouldest ordeine Elders in euery
citie, as I appointed thee,
6 noteIf any be vnreproueable, the husbande of
one wife, hauing faithfull children, which are not
slandered of riot, neither are note disobedient.
7 noteFor a Bishop must bee vnreproueable, as
Gods note steward, not note froward, not angrie, not giuen
to wine, no striker, not giuen to filthie lucre,
8 But harberous, one that loueth goodnesse,
note wise, righteous, holy, temperate,
9 noteHolding fast that faithfull worde according
to doctrine, note that he also may bee able to
exhort with wholesome doctrine, and conuince
them that say against it.
10 noteFor there are many disobedient & vaine
talkers and deceiuers of mindes, chiefly they of the
note Circumcision,
11 Whose mouthes must bee stopped, which
subuert whole houses, teaching things, which they
ought not, for filthie lucres sake.
12 noteOne of themselues, euen one of their
owne prophets said, The Cretians are alwaies liars,
euill beastes, slowe bellies.
13 This witnesse is true: wherefore conuince
them note sharply, that they may be sound in þe; faith,
14 And not taking heede to note Iewish fables
and commaundements of men, that turne away
from the trueth.
15 noteVnto the pure note are all things pure, but
vnto them that are defiled, and vnbeleeuing, is
nothing pure, but euen their note mindes and consciences
are defiled.
16 They professe that they know God, but by
works they deny him, and are abominable & disobedient,
and vnto euery good worke reprobate.
