1) Those that are believers must live the kind of life that is guided by the accurate teaching of God’s Word.
2) The elders and men that are older must be sober, of good character, users of good judgment, well grounded in faith, love and endurance.
3) The older women must live their lives in a way that shows they are dedicated to God. They should not be gossipers or users of alcoholic drinks, but examples of virtue.
4) The older women are to teach the younger women how to love their husbands and children; how to use good judgment and be morally pure. Also, the older women must teach the younger women how to be homemakers, to be kind and to place themselves under their husbands’ authority. Then no one will be able to speak evil of God’s Word, and the women under its influence.
5) Young men must be encouraged to use good judgment, making the right choices.
6) A good example is always set when good things are done. The leaders must be examples of moral purity and dignity (self-respect).
7) An accurate message of truth cannot be condemned. Those that oppose the truth will be made ashamed.
8) Employees that are believers must respect their employers, not argue with them, or steal from them. The believer is taught to be a good and loyal worker, proving that our lives are influence by the teachings contained in God’s Word.
9) God’s saving kindness has appeared for the benefit of all people.
10) The believer is taught to avoid ungodly living (living trying to fulfill worldly desires) so that we can be self-controlled, moral, and godly in this present world.
11) We can expect what we hope for – the appearance of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
12) Jesus Christ gave himself for us to set us free from every sin and to cleanse us so that we can be His special people, who are enthusiastic about doing what’s good and right.
13) These truths must be shared with all believers. The leaders must encourage and correct with all authority. Do not allow anyone to ignore the truth.
