Titus 2:12
King James Version
7 Jun 2026
“Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;”
ζάω
To live, to be alive. Zao. I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live. Life in Scripture is always relational. To live is to be connected to the source of life.

παιδεύω
To train, to discipline, to educate. Paideuo. The Lord disciplines those He loves. Discipline is evidence of love not absence of it. God trains those He has chosen for greatness.
