- Kapitel 1 -

(2 Corinthians 8:16–24)
1
I, Paul, write this letter to you, Titus. I am a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. God sent me to teach the people whom he has chosen as his own to trust him more. I work to help his people to know what is true, so that they can live in a way that pleases God.
2
His people can learn how to live like this because they are confident that God will cause them to live forever. God tells no lies. Even before the world began, he promised to cause us to live forever.
3
Then, at the right time, he communicated his plan through this message that he trusted me to preach. I do this in order to obey the command of God, who saves us.
4
I am writing to you, Titus, because you are like a son to me because we both believe in Jesus Christ. May God the Father and Messiah Jesus who saves us continue to be kind to you and to give you peace.

Appointing Elders on Crete

(1 Timothy 3:1–7; 1 Peter 5:1–4)
5
I left you on the Island of Crete for this reason: That you do the work that is still unfinished and also appoint elders for the group of believers in every city, just as I told you to do.
6
Now every elder must be someone whom no one can criticize. He must also have just one wife, his children must trust in God, and people must not consider his children to be wicked or disobedient.
7
Everyone who leads God’s people is like someone who manages God’s house. So it is necessary for this person to have a good reputation. He should not be proud and he must not get angry quickly. He must not be an alcoholic, not someone who likes to fight and argue, and not a greedy man.
8
Rather than that, he must welcome strangers and love the things that are good. He must always act sensibly and treat other people in a fair and honest manner. He must always act in a way that is right for someone who is devoted to God and he must always control his emotions.
9
He must always believe the true things we have taught him, and he must live according to them. He must do this in order to persuade people to live like this too, and in order to correct people if they do not want to live like this.

Correcting False Teachers

(1 Timothy 1:3–11)
10
I tell you these things because there are many people who refuse to obey those who are in authority over them. The people who are the most like this are the ones who tell all followers of Messiah to become circumcised.
11
You and the leaders whom you appoint should prevent such people from teaching the believers. They are teaching things that they should not teach, causing entire families to believe wrong things. They only do it so that people will give them money. This is very shameful!
12
One man of Crete, someone his people thought was a prophet, said, “Cretans are always lying to one another! They are like dangerous wild animals! They are lazy and always eat too much food.”
13
What he said is true, so correct them forcefully so that they may believe and teach correct things about God.
14
They should stop living according to stories invented by the Jews and commandments that came from people, not God, people who have stopped obeying what is true.
15
If someone does not have sinful thoughts or desires, then for that person everything is good. But if anyone is wicked and does not believe in Messiah Jesus, everything that he does makes him unclean. Such a person’s way of thinking has been ruined. He does not even feel guilty when he does what is evil.
16
Even though they claim to know God, what they do shows that they do not know him. They are disgusting. They disobey God and can do nothing good for him.

Gruß

(2. Korinther 8,16-24)
1
Paulus, Diener Gottes, und Apostel Jesu Christi, für den Glauben der Auserwählten Gottes und die Erkenntnis der Wahrheit, welche der Frömmigkeit gemäß ist,
2
zur Hoffnung des ewigen Lebens, welches Gott, der nicht lügt, vor unvordenklichen Zeiten verheißen,
3
zu seiner Zeit aber hat er sein Wort kundgetan durch die Verkündigung, mit der ich betraut bin, nach Anordnung unsers Heilandes, Gottes,
4
an Titus, den geliebten Sohn vermöge des gemeinschaftlichen Glaubens, Gnade und Friede von Gott dem Vater und Christus Jesus, unserem Heiland.

Qualifizierte Älteste

(1. Timotheus 3,1-7; 1. Petrus 5,1-4)
5
Deshalb habe ich dich auf Kreta zurückgelassen, damit du das, was mangelt, in Ordnung bringest, und von Stadt zu Stadt Vorsteher bestellst, wie ich dich auch angewiesen habe:
6
wenn einer untadelig ist, nur eines Weibes Mann, gläubige Kinder hat, die nicht wegen Ausschweifung verrufen oder unbotmäßig sind.
7
Denn der Bischof muss als Haushalter Gottes untadelig sein, nicht eigenmächtig, nicht zornmütig, nicht dem Trunke ergeben, nicht händelsüchtig, nicht nach schnödem Gewinne begierig,
8
sondern gastfrei, gütig, besonnen, gerecht, heilig, sich selbst beherrschend,
9
festhaltend an dem der Lehre entsprechenden zuverlässigen Worte, damit er im Stande sei, in der gesunden Lehre zu ermahnen und die Widersprechenden zurechtzuweisen.

Die Aufgabe der Ältesten

(1. Timotheus 1,3-11)
10
Denn es gibt viele Unbotmäßige, leere Schwätzer und Verführer, besonders unter denen aus der Beschneidung.
11
Diese muss man zum Schweigen bringen; da sie ganze Häuser verkehren, indem sie lehren, was nicht recht ist, schnöden Gewinnes halber.
12
Es hat einer aus ihnen, ihr eigener Prophet gesagt: Die Kreter sind immerdar Lügner, bösartige Tiere, müßige Bäuche.
13
Dieses Zeugnis ist wahr. Deswegen weise sie scharf zurecht, damit sie gesund seien im Glauben.
14
und nicht jüdischen Fabeln Gehör schenken und Geboten von Menschen, die sich von der Wahrheit abwenden.
15
Alles ist dem Reinen rein; den Befleckten und Ungläubigen aber ist nichts rein, sondern befleckt ist ihr Sinn und ihr Gewissen.
16
Sie geben vor, Gott zu kennen, in den Werken aber verleugnen sie ihn; denn sie sind verabscheuungswürdig, dem Glauben ungehorsam und zu jedem guten Werke untauglich.
