Devotional: Titus 3:12-15

Today’s passage: Titus 3:12-15

Helpful thoughts:

  • In Paul’s Apostolic ministry (and Apostolic authority) there were people who needed to be moved from place to place in service to the Lord and His growing church.
  • Titus’ leadership of the church included guiding them to support and assist other Christian people for the cause of the spread of the gospel.
  • Titus’ leadership of the church in that way was for the church’s benefit!  The church needs to be fruitful, accomplishing the work of God.

Questions to consider:

  1. How does the pastoral leadership Paul commends here work in conjunction with congregational church governance?  It is a contradiction?  Why not?
  2. How could some of the works mentioned in this passage be pursued individually?  Or corporately as a church?  What are the benefits of acting together as a body?  What could the benefits be for the missionary if they were supported by churches more often than by individuals?
  3. In what ways do we see our church being fruitful in these ways?  Praise the Lord for it!
