- Oct 8, 2017Titus 2:1-10Oct 8, 2017Titus 2:1-10By: Brian LindquistSeries: TitusConsistency between what Christians believe and how they live is a glaring problem today. That’s why today’s text from Titus 2:1-10 is so helpful for us to hear and apply to our lives in the 21st century. Prior to this Paul had instructed Titus on how to deal with false teachers that had infiltrated the churches on the island of Crete. It’s very important, in any church, that our theology is correct, but equally important is that what we believe about God and Jesus Christ not merely stay in our heads but that it’s lived out in our lives. That was a challenge in the first century and remains a challenge today as well.
- Oct 4, 2017Titus 1:10-16Oct 4, 2017Titus 1:10-16By: Brian LindquistSeries: Titus"Many surveys among Christians today reveal how little they know about the Bible and how confused they are about basic Bible doctrines. And much of the blame for this comes from the false doctrine they are hearing from pulpits and Bible study leaders within the churches. It astounds me that there are many church leaders today who no longer believe in that Jesus came and died on a cross for our sins and rose again and will one day come back. There’s a prevalent belief that there is no physical Hell and that everyone will end up with God in heaven. Other leaders teach that the miracles in the Bible didn’t really take place but are mere “stories” to motivate us to live life differently. Paul doesn’t mince words on instructing Titus on how to handle these false teachers from within the church ranks and we’d do well to listen and apply his instructions today as well.

Today’s sermon is especially appropriate in light of today’s culture where we are often struggling with the level of leadership we see on all sorts of levels. Paul has given Titus the responsibility of setting up elders in all the churches on the island of Crete. In that culture, where immorality, greed and dishonesty was rampant it was very important to put the right people in charge of the churches. That need is just as important in today’s churches as well.

In this chapter James contrasts living by the world’s standard and leading vs. living by God’s standards and calling.
