*** START OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE WORLD ENGLISH BIBLE (WEB):

TITUS ***

From www.ebible.org with slight reformatting by Martin Ward.

001:003 but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I

was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;

Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.

001:005 I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order

the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city,

as I directed you;

001:006 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children

who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.

001:007 For the overseer must be blameless, as God's steward;

not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine,

not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;

001:008 but given to hospitality, as a lover of good, sober minded,

001:011 whose mouths must be stopped; men who overthrow whole houses,

teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain's sake.

001:012 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars,

evil beasts, and idle gluttons."

001:013 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply,

that they may be sound in the faith,

001:014 not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men

who turn away from the truth.

001:015 To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled

and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their

002:003 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior,

not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that

which is good;

002:004 that they may train the young women to love their husbands,

to love their children,

002:005 to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in

subjection to their own husbands, that God's word may

not be blasphemed.

002:006 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be sober minded;

002:007 in all things showing yourself an example of good works;

the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.

002:011 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

002:012 instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and

worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly

in this present world;

002:013 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our

great God and Savior, Jesus Christ;

002:014 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity,

and purify for himself a people for his own possession,

Let no man despise you.

003:001 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities,

to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

003:002 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle,

showing all humility toward all men.

003:003 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived,

serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice

and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

003:004 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love

toward mankind appeared,

003:008 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I

desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have

believed God may be careful to maintain good works.

These things are good and profitable to men;

003:009 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes

about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

003:010 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning;

003:011 knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.

003:012 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come

to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.

per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2

million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text

files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+

We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002

If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total

will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created

to secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium.

We need your donations more than ever!

As of February, 2002, contributions are being solicited from people

and organizations in: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut,

Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

We have filed in all 50 states now, but these are the only ones

that have responded.

As the requirements for other states are met, additions to this list

will be made and fund raising will begin in the additional states.

Please feel free to ask to check the status of your state.

In answer to various questions we have received on this:

While we cannot solicit donations from people in states where we are

not yet registered, we know of no prohibition against accepting

donations from donors in these states who approach us with an offer to

donate.

International donations are accepted, but we don't know ANYTHING about

how to make them tax-deductible, or even if they CAN be made

deductible, and don't have the staff to handle it even if there are

ways.

Contact us if you want to arrange for a wire transfer or payment

method other than by check or money order.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been approved by

the US Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(3) organization with EIN

[Employee Identification Number] 64-622154. Donations are

tax-deductible to the maximum extent permitted by law. As fund-raising

requirements for other states are met, additions to this list will be

made and fund-raising will begin in the additional states.
