And then Paul makes a statement which should never be forgotten: “They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good” (Titus 1:16).
Tunaweza kujifunza nini tunapaswa kuepuka vilevile kile tunachostahili kujitahidi kuiga. Paulo anapendekeza kwamba tutafute kuwa safi tunapoepuka mambo ambayo yatachafua akili zetu na fahamu. Na kisha Paulo anatoa kauli ambayo haitasahaulika kamwe: "Wanakiri ya kwamba wanamjua Mungu, bali kwa matendo yao wanamkana; ni wenye machukizo, waasi, wala kwa kila tendo jema hawafai "(Tito 1:16).
