OBEDIENCE


Titus 2:9-10

Exhort bondservants to be obedient to their own masters, to be well pleasing in all things, not answering back, not pilfering, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

Personal Challenge

Paul, who earlier in this epistle identified himself as a bondservant to Jesus Christ, continues to exhort Titus, and us, to be obedient to those who are over us. We do not have bondservants today but we do enter into agreements where we submit to others whether it be employment or membership in an organization. As followers of Christ there are godly ways for us to be living under another’s governance. This part of Titus teaches about these ways. This does not prevent us from leaving these situations when they become abusive or ungodly. Glory be to God!
