Titus 2:8

Continuing to talk about the teacher or Titus, there are these teachings Paul gives. With respect to these standards, they are to put opponents to shame. Clearly, they had enemies or opponents, as will any and every follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. However, sound speech that cannot be condemned is that which will put them to shame. Opponents will try to twist your words and attack you pointing to your faults and shortcomings. However, acting and living above reproach gives little to nothing for enemies to use against you. Therefore, they are shamed in their attempts to say something against you but not being able to find something.
