Titus 3:1-7 (NKJV)
¹  Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,
²  to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men.
³  For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.
⁴  But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared,
⁵  not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
⁶  whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
⁷  that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
