Titus 2:6 Young men......

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. Too Blessed to be stressed.

Okay, today, young men! We can give them advice, but do they heed the advice.

Titus 2:6 KJV "Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded."

Life Application "in the same way, encourage the young men to live wisely."


"Sober-minded" in Greek - sophroneo- is translated as "temperate" and "discreet." It has the idea of curbing one's desires and impulses or self-controlled.

This advice given to young men was very important. In ancient Greek society, the role of the husband/father was not viewed as a nurturing role but merely as a functional one.

Many young men today have been raised in families where fathers have neglected their responsibilities to their wives and children. Husbands and fathers who are good examples of Christian living are important role models for young men who need to see how it is done.

May you, men, be sober-minded; women-may you have sober-minded men in leading role models of your life and family. Thank you for reading. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace

Johnny
