He saved us
Remind them to respect rulers and authorities, to obey those in charge and to be ready for every good work. To speak evil of no one, to be no brawlers, but gentle, showing kindness and humility to everyone. Because there was a time when we were the same — no sense, no obedience, taken in, at the beck and call of all sorts of cravings and pleasures, living in spite and envy, hateful, and hating each other. But when the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, he saved us — not by works of righteousness we had done, but according to his mercy — by the washing of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Spirit, which he poured out on us in full measure through Jesus Christ our Saviour, so that, put right by his grace, we should be made heirs with the hope of eternal life ahead of us. This is a faithful saying. I want you to affirm these things constantly, so that those who have believed in God are careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to people.
Put them in mind to be under rulers and authorities, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work. To speak evil of no man, to be no fighters but gentle, showing all meekness to all men. Because we ourselves too were sometimes foolish, disobedient, taken in, serving different wants and pleasures, living in badness and envy, hateful and hating each other. But after the kindness and love of God our Saviour towards man showed itself, not by works of righteousness we've done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of new birth and the making new of the Holy Spirit. Who he poured out on us plentifully through Jesus Christ our Saviour. So being made right by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of everlasting life. This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to say firmly, so the ones who've believed in God can be careful to keep up good works. These things are good and useful to men.
Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.

Avoid foolish questions
But avoid foolish questions, genealogies, contentions and strivings about the law, because they are unprofitable and vain. A man who is a heretic — after the first and second warning, reject him. Knowing that such a man is subverted and sins, being condemned by himself. When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, do your best to get to me at Nicopolis. I've decided to see the winter out there. Give Zenas the lawyer and Apollos a proper send-off on their way, and make sure they go short of nothing. And our own people need to learn to get on with good works and meet the needs that come up, so their lives don't come to nothing. Everyone here sends their regards. Say hello to those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
But keep away from foolish questions and family lines and arguings and fights about the teaching. Because they're of no use and empty. A man who's a heretic after the first and second warning turn away from. Knowing that one like that is turned aside and sins, being condemned of himself. When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, try hard to come to me at Nicopolis. Because I've settled to winter there. Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey with care, so nothing is lacking to them. And let ours learn too to keep up good works for the needs that come, so they aren't fruitless. All who are with me greet you. Greet the ones who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself. When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter. Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them. And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful. All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
