3 Remind them to submit to rulers and authorities, to obey them, to be ready for every good work, 2 to revile no one, to be uncontentious, gentle, showing all humility toward all men. 3 For once we also were foolish and disobedient. We were led astray, enslaved by various passions and pleasures. We lived in evil and envy, detestable, hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and the love for mankind of God our Savior appeared, 5 it was not by works of righteousness that we did but by his mercy that he saved us through the washing of new birth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he richly poured on us through our Savior Jesus Christ, 7 so that having been justified by the grace of that one, we might become heirs according to certain hope of eternal life. 8 This message is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things so that the ones having believed God may be careful to engage themselves in good works. These things are good and useful for men. 9 But avoid foolish debates and genealogies and strife and conflict about the law because they are unprofitable and worthless. 10 Reject a divisive person after one or two warnings, 11 knowing that such a one has turned from the right way and is sinning, being self-condemned.
12 When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, hurry to come to me at Nicopolis, because I have decided to spend the winter there. 13 Diligently send on their way Zenas the lawyer and Apollos so that they lack nothing. 14 And also, our own must learn to engage themselves in good works toward essential needs, in order not to be unfruitful.
15 All those with me greet you. Greet the ones loving us in faith. Grace be with all of you.
