Commands for

OLDER MEN

Titus 2:2

"Teach the older men to exercise self-control, to be worthy of respect, and to live wisely. They must have strong faith and be filled with love and patience."

1. Be sober, not drinkers of wine

2. Be grave (serious) (honest)

3. Be temperate (to govern instincts and passions.)

4. Sound in faith

5. Sound in love (1 Cor. 13:4)

6. Sound in patience (Psalm 37:7 and Prov. 16:32)

Tragedy of life, when a man has learned nothing from the years.

FAITH - experiences in life do not take faith, but add to...

LOVE - danger to drift into critisism and fault finding. This takes kindly sympathy away.

PATIENCE - (foritude) tempered like steel. This man can bear more. He emerges more in conquering. His nature might be weak in body, but he is stronger in these other areas.
