El sermón titulado "Acorde con la sana doctrina," predicado por Joel Coyoc, aborda la importancia de vivir según la sana doctrina, tal como se instruye en Tito 2:6-8. Coyoc enfatiza que la sana doctrina implica no solo la enseñanza correcta, sino que se traduce en una manera de vivir que honra a Dios y resulta en buenas obras que adornan la doctrina del Salvador. Se citan varias Escrituras, entre ellas Proverbios y Pasajes de Tito, para analizar la prudencia y su relación con la vida cristiana auténtica. La exhortación a la prudencia se extiende a todas las generaciones de creyentes, recordando que es vital recurrir a la gracia de Dios en Cristo, quien es el verdadero modelo de prudencia y sabiduría. La práctica de estas enseñanzas no solo glorifica a Dios, sino que también evita que su Palabra sea blasfemada y se convierte en un testimonio poderoso ante el mundo.

The Bible emphasizes the importance of speaking according to sound doctrine as a foundation for godly living.
The significance of sound doctrine is articulated in the New Testament, particularly in the letters of Paul. In Titus 2:1, Paul instructs Titus to teach what accords with sound doctrine, highlighting that sound teaching creates a framework for believers to live wisely and in obedience to God's will. Paul contrasts true doctrine with foolish myths, encouraging the church to adhere to the gospel's truths and the teachings that reflect Christ's character. This adherence not only shapes the moral and spiritual conduct of individuals but also protects the integrity of the church against false teachings and cultural pressures.
Titus 2:1, 1 Timothy 1:10-11
The grace of God is revealed through Jesus Christ, who accomplished salvation for all who believe in Him.
The Bible asserts that the grace of God has been manifested in Jesus Christ for the salvation of all mankind (Titus 2:11). This grace is not based on human merit but solely on God's mercy and love. In Ephesians 2:8-9, we learn that salvation is by grace through faith, showcasing that it is a gift from God, not something we can earn. Moreover, the New Testament consistently emphasizes that Jesus' sacrificial death and resurrection are the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan, offering a way for sinners to be reconciled to Him. This assurance lets believers rest in God's grace as they await the glorious return of Christ, reaffirming the sufficiency of His work for their salvation.
Titus 2:11, Ephesians 2:8-9
Prudence is vital for Christians as it involves making wise decisions that align with God's will.
Prudence, defined as practical wisdom, plays a crucial role in the life of a believer. Proverbs discusses the significance of prudence in guiding one's actions and thoughts, emphasizing that the prudent person sees danger and takes refuge (Proverbs 22:3). In the sermon, the preacher highlights that this biblical concept calls Christians to be mindful of their choices, especially in a world that often promotes foolishness and impulsivity. Following Christ's example of living in obedience to God's will provides the foundation for prudence. Therefore, Christians are urged to seek wisdom from God through Scripture and prayer, allowing them to navigate life's challenges in a manner that glorifies Him.
Proverbs 22:3, Proverbs 3:5-6
Young people can develop a godly character by living according to sound doctrine and seeking God's wisdom.
Developing a godly character is essential for young people, as they are at a formative stage of life. The sermon emphasizes that Paul instructs young individuals to be prudent, which reflects a mind aligned with God’s wisdom. This prudence involves not only discerning right from wrong but actively choosing the path of righteousness (Titus 2:6). Moreover, by immersing themselves in Scripture, engaging with wise mentors, and remaining part of a faithful church community, young Christians can cultivate habits that lead to Christ-like character. The importance of accountability and consistent prayer cannot be overstated; these practices fortify their resolve to embody the fruit of the Spirit as they await the return of Christ.
Titus 2:6, Galatians 5:22-23
Trusting in Jesus' righteousness is essential as He fulfills the law perfectly on our behalf.
The call to trust in the righteousness of Jesus arises from the acknowledgment of our inability to attain righteousness on our own due to sin. The sermon stresses that our hope lies in Christ, who perfectly fulfilled the law and offers righteousness to believers through faith (Philippians 3:9). This exchange is central to the gospel—by faith, we receive Christ's righteousness and are justified before God. This not only assures our standing before Him but also instills confidence and motivates believers to pursue holiness, empowered by the Holy Spirit. The conviction that we are cloaked in Christ's righteousness provides profound peace and security in our relationship with God.
Philippians 3:9, Romans 3:22-24
