INTRODUCTION. This is one of the clearest passages in the Bible on the grace of God and its results. A Christian is one who has been:

I. SAVED BY GRACE. (SALVATION) Titus 2:11.

A. Salvation is an inclusive term and contains a wealth of meaning. It means that we are:

B. Cleansed from sin by the blood of Christ. Rev. 1:5.

C. Delivered eternally from the penalty of sin. Rom. 6:23; John 10:27–30.

D. We are sure of heaven when we die. John 14:1–3; 2 Cor. 5:1–8; John 11:25, 26.

II. TAUGHT BY GRACE. (CHRISTIAN LIVING) Titus 2:12.

A. Teaches us the negative side of Christian living; that which we are to leave alone.

1. Ungodliness. Anything that is not for His glory. Cp. 1 Cor. 10:31.

2. Worldly lusts. James 4:4.

B. Teaches us the positive side of Christian living.

1. Soberly. Col. 3:5–10. Has to do with our self.

2. Righteously. Rom. 12:17–21. Has to do with our relations with our fellowman.

3. Godly. Col. 3:15–17. Has to do with our relationship with God.

III. MARKED BY GRACE. (CHRISTIAN HOPE) Titus 2:13, 14.

A. Will cause us to look for Christ. Compare. John 14:1–3; 1 Thess. 4:13–18; 1 John 3:1–3.

B. Will cause us to be a peculiar people. (A people for His very own possession.) Cp. 1 Cor. 6:19, 20.

C. Will cause us to be zealous of good works. Cp. Eph. 2:8–10.
