Sound Doctrine

Titus 2:1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine 

‘But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine.’ Titus was to teach Jesus Christ and live the utter opposite of the Judaizers of Titus 2:10-16.

‘Speak thou the things which become sound doctrine.’ Titus was commanded, just as Timothy, to teach the gospel as given by Christ and His apostles. Eightfold command – teach sound doctrine: To the old men (2:1-2). To the aged women (2:3-4). To the young women (2:4-5). To the young men (2:6-8). To servants (2:9-10). To men – concerning grace (2:11-12). To men – concerning the rapture and the second coming (2:13). To men – concerning redemption (2:14-15). In Biblical days, people had no Bibles to read from and the disciples and apostles were to spread the Word of God through teaching and writing the Word as we have today.

All of these classes can today pick up the Word of God and study it for themselves and everyone in Christ have a responsibility to know the Word of God and not to listen to teachings on it which contain mostly false doctrine and distorted truth. KNOW GOD’s WORD!!! Man should read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, and practice it to be holy. He should read it so that it might fill his memory, rule his heart, and guide his feet in righteousness and true holiness (Rom. 10:17). Listening to others talking about God’s Word is not the same as studying it!
