1st Coming = The Appearance of God’s Grace – v11
2nd Coming = The Appearance of God’s Glory – v13
Sermon – The Two Appearances of Christ – Titus 2:11-14
Preparing your heart for the sermon: -Notice that vv11-14 are one long sentence. What is the subject of that sentence? -What is Paul referring to in v11 when he writes, “the grace of God has appeared”? What is significant about describing it that way? -What does it look like for a believer to be waiting for the second coming of Christ?
-Other passages to consider: Matt 24-25; Phil 3:17-21; 1 Thess 4:13-5:11; 2 Thess 1:5-12; Heb 9:25-28; 2 Pet 3.
Digging Deeper: -What did Christ accomplish with His first coming? How is this related to God’s grace? -How are believers still dependent on the grace of God? -What does v13 tell us about the return of Christ? What will be the purpose of His second coming? -How should these two appearances (comings) of Christ affect how we live now?
