TREATMENT OF OTHERS
Titus 3:1-2
Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men.
Personal Challenge
How are we as Christians supposed to treat others? In Paul's letter to Titus, we have a few more guidelines other than "love your neighbor". If we are subject to a ruler or authority (government, law enforcement, teacher, employer, etc.), which all of us are, then we are to obey them and to be ready to do good works for them. For everyone else in our lives, then we are to speak evil of no one, be peaceable with all, be gentle, and show humility to all. This is no small task, yet one that we signed up for when we chose to follow Jesus. Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Loud, have mercy!
