New Testament: Tts 1.6

To read the Bible in a year, read Titus 1 on October 31, In the year of our Lord Christ 2022

By Don Ruhl 

Paul left Titus on the Island of Crete to set the church there in order, which included appointing elders. Paul gave a brief description of the kind of man who would serve as an elder in the church: 

…if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of dissipation or insubordination.

– Titus 1.6 

Such a man needs to be the kind that no one would question his Christianity. Yes, he sins as we all do, but he does not live a life of sin, and if someone were to charge him with such, no one would believe it. 

Questions: 

• Do you support elders, even if you disagree with them? 
• Where is Crete?
