Titus 3:3-7

Titus 2 Philemon 1

Titus 3:3-7 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

³For we too were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved by various passions and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, detesting one another.

⁴But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love
for mankind appeared,
⁵He saved us—
not by works of righteousness that we had done,
but according to His mercy,
through the washing of regeneration
and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
⁶He poured out this Spirit on us abundantly
through Jesus Christ our Savior,
⁷so that having been justified by His grace,
we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.
