全新四年樂活讀經
W4 2013-10-31提多書2
2:11 因為 神救眾人的恩典已經顯明出來，
2:12 教訓我們除去不敬虔的心和世俗的情慾，在今世自守、公義、敬虔度日，
2:13 等候所盼望的福，並等候至大的 神和我們（或譯： 神─我們）救主耶穌基督的榮耀顯現。
2:14 他為我們捨了自己，要贖我們脫離一切罪惡，又潔淨我們，特作自己的子民，熱心為善。
默想: 基督捨已是為了我們，因為愛要救我們脫離一切的罪惡，使我們不再屬於罪。祂又潔淨我們，使我們能夠歸在祂的名下，成為上帝聖潔的子民。當我們成為祂的子民，祂對我們的期待就是熱心為善。基督的教會是新的以色列，基督徒是新的以色列子民，所以當我們被上帝所揀選後，我們要努力過一個遵行上帝旨意的生活，熱心為善，我們若能夠如此行，則基督在上帝榮耀中再來時，我就可以坦然無懼地見主的面。
題目: 根據本章經文，基督捨己有何目的呢？
