disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and 

pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, 

and hating one another.  But after that the 

kindness and love of God our Saviour toward 

man appeared,  Not by works of righteousness 

which we have done, but according to his mercy 

he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and 

renewing of the Holy Ghost;  Which he shed on 

us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

That being justified by his grace, we should be 

made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

This is a faithful saying, and these things I will 

that thou affirm constantly, that they which have 

believed in God might be careful to maintain 

good works. These things are good and profitable 

unto men.

Titus 3:3-8
