Series: Setting the House in Order

Titus 1:5-16
If you have your Bible, please turn to Titus chapter 1. We're going through the Book of Titus on Wednesday nights, and we're calling this series, "Setting the House in Order." And so, tonight, we want to look at the last few verses of Titus chapter One.

You know, the cure is worse than the sickness that the person had. But they're going to die for sure because then that stuff gets inside them. So you have to clean up. You can't have any germs in the operating room. Now, in Ch ...
