Titus 2&3
Praise you, father. Your grace has appeared to me bringing salvation and training me to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self controlled, upright, and godly in this present age. I wait for that blessed hope, the appearance of my great God and Savior Jesus Christ. He gave himself for me to redeem me from all lawlessness and to purify, for himself, for his own possession, a vessel zealous for the good works of God.
By your grace, Lord Jesus, I submit to rulers and authorities. I am obedient and ready for every good work. I do not speak evil of anyone; I avoid quarreling; I am gentle, and show courtesy to all.
Your goodness and love and kindness have appeared to me, Lord Jesus. You have saved me; not according to works done by me, but according to your own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom you poured out on me richly. I am justified by your grace and have become your heir.
