Titus 3:3-8 - What God Did For Us
3 For we also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.
4 When the kindness of God our Savior, and his love toward man, appeared, 5 not by works done in righteousness, which we did, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration (restoration) (spiritual rebirth) and renewing (renovation) of the Holy Spirit. 6 He poured Spirit out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior. 7 Being justified by his grace (loving kindness), we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
8 Faithful is the saying, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, to the end that they who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.
