Ordain Priests and Bishops
5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest reform the things that are wanting, and shouldest ordain priests by cities, as I also appointed thee:
6 if any be without crime, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not in the accusation of riot, or not obedient.
7 For a Bishop must be without crime, as the steward of God: not proud, not angry, not given to wine, no striker, not covetous of filthy lucre:
8 but given to hospitality, gentle, sober, just, holy, continent:
9 embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to reprove them that gainsay it.
Rebuke Believers of Judean Fables and Commandments of Men
13 This testimony is true. For the which cause rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
14 not attending to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, averting themselves from the truth.
