The Wisdom Of Being Inconvenienced Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 27, 2005

We fight so much for individual rights that we forget that our behavior is being watched by others - and can make a difference whether they come to Christ or not. So being free in Christ means freedom to say "no" to things we can do.

The key to understanding Titus chapter 2 is found in verses 11 & 12. Rather than a series of rather random and possibly restrictive or even discriminatory rules - Titus 2 teaches us how to live our lives in relation to the gospel - what it has meant to us and how it shapes our lives as we relate to ...read more

Likely you do. Do you even pray that you might have that limitation removed? I expect that I ...read more
