Guarding Healthy Faith in a Sick World

Nothing is so precious as the faith we have in God, His Word, and Christ's work for us. That is why Paul sat to write the young church planting pastor named Titus, serving on the island of Crete. Paul's world was hostile to the truth of God; and Paul warned that days to come would increasingly be filled with false teachings and doctrine about God. Paul stressed a growing wave of spiritual deception, false doctrines, and strong delusion that surrounded false teachers. Paul warns of attack from within and without the church. He warned Timothy and all pastors after him, to guard the teaching of truth, and even described the false doctrines that were taught as deadly and destructive as cancer or gangrene. That is why our look at the 4th element of a grace-energized disciple of Christ as described in Titus 2—men who are sound in faith, is so timely. Grace-energized Men are Sound in Faith as disciples of Christ. They are GUARDING A HEALTHY FAITH IN A SICK WORLD.
