181 - Concluding Remarks of Grace: Titus 3:12-15 Taught by Grace
-
- Christianity
Titus is like a three chapter IV pumping what it means to live by the grace of God for the glory of God into our spiritual veins.
And now we come to these concluding verses and think, “Okay, everything else makes sense why I should care, but what impact can these four salutary verses teach me?” On the surface, these verses are very much Paul’s concluding remarks to Titus. He’s finishing this letter out and has some final instructions for him. That is basically what these verses are about, but without straining at gnats and trying to swallow camels, I do believe these verses have more to offer than simply being Paul’s final concerns for Titus.
In these final words, these verses remind us that God's work is bigger than individuals, is about far more than us, and that we are not alone in this.
