Titus

For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age.

Who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine.

He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
