God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that,
denying ungodliness and wordly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously
and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope; and the
glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; who gave
himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity; and purify unto
himself a peculiar people zealous of good works. Titus 2:11-14
