But speak thou the things which become sound Doctrine: That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the Word of GOD be not blasphemed. Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. (Tit 2:1-6)
Each generation is to share what they have learned, and pass it on to those that follow, that GOD may be glorified in the Christ-like behaviour and Godly character of His people. All who are saved by GOD's grace and our faith in His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary are to live a life in and through Christ that reflects Him. We are to be holy, for He is Holy. We are to grow in Him, by the example of those who have gone before, and the Word of GOD, until He is done with us and comes to take us Home to be with Him.
Until then He calls us to service, in teaching Doctrine, instructing in the Word that all may know Him, and ministering to those around us who are hurting and in need. He commands us to love one another, teaching and admonishing as we all grow up in Him. He has commissioned all His people to the ministry of reconciliation and as ambassadors of His Kingdom. We are to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to this lost and dying world that they may believe the Good News and repent of their sin and have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
