Titus 2
7 In everything, show yourself to be an example by doing good works. In your teaching show integrity, dignity,
8 and wholesome speech that is above reproach, so that anyone who opposes us will be ashamed, having nothing bad to say about us.
9 Slaves are to submit to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,

11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone.
