Titus 2:11-14

11For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

12instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;

13looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,

14who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.
