BEHAVING WELL
Titus 2:9-10
Exhort bondservants to be obedient to their own masters, to be well pleasing in all things, not answering back, not pilfering, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.
Personal Challenge
I have heard people say that the Bible does not apply to our world today. I have also heard people complain that there are not enough clear guidelines in the Bible for how we should act in certain situations. Both of these comments baffle me. Some of the terminologies may have changed over the last 2,000 years, but the concepts are still relevant, as they have remained so for all of those years. We do not have bondservants and masters, but we do have employees and employers, subordinates and managers, students and teachers, customers and suppliers. In all of these modern-day relationships, we can apply these teachings to Titus. Be obedient to the one that is in the lead. Strive to meet their needs by being well-pleasing, not answering back, not pilfering, and showing good fidelity. We do this to please our Lord and be an adornment to His doctrine. Glory be to God!
