Salutation

1  From Paul, a slave of God and apostle of Jesus Christ, to further the faith of God’s chosen ones and the knowledge of the truth that is in keeping with godliness, 2  in hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the ages began. 3  But now in his own time he has made his message evident through the preaching I was entrusted with according to the command of God our Savior. 4  To Titus, my genuine son in a common faith. Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior!
