Titus 1:1-4

Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, in agreement with the faith of the saints of God and the full knowledge of what is true in harmony with religion, In the hope of eternal life, which was made certain before eternal time, by the word of God who is ever true; Who, in his time, made clear his word in the good news, of which, by the order of God our Saviour, I became a preacher; To Titus, my true child in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
