Titus - Protection From Spiritual Disease
Hypocrites and insubordinates deceivers were leading entire households astray with false doctrine and self-focused philosophies. This portrays many churches today. Many churches are misleading their followers with myths, legalism, religious traditions, and teaching devoid of Jesus. The remedy Paul suggests is to eradicate this false teaching by the qualified elders' sharp rebuke with the authoritative Scriptures and by pointing the church to sound doctrine.

The Spirit of Adoption (Romans 8:15)
We ought to rejoice that we have received the Spirit of adoption. It is a past and finished work. This brings us joy because it is something we receive by grace; otherwise we could never earn or deserve it. It brings us joy because our adoption is accompanied by all the blessings of God. And it brings us joy because we receive the relationship, affection and care of our Father.

Living Apart from Christ
This is part two in a two week sermon. We are called to put on the new self, thus taking off the old self. But, what does the "old self" look like? Paul gives a clear description of the life believers have left behind when they found Christ.

Death That Leads to Life (Romans 8:12-14)
As Christians, we are debtors; not to the flesh, for it has never been our friend, but to the Spirit, who has given us life. This joyful obligation, as those who have received a precious gift, calls us to put sin to death -- to kill, or "mortify" it. This is a real battle that we must fight continually, but we do it not in our own strength, but in the strength of the very Spirit who gives us life.
