Mind and conscience

Source and translation

World English Bible, Protestant Edition · Public domain · en

¹⁵To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.

Titus 1:15World English Bible, Protestant Edition

The scene

The writer describes both the mind and the conscience of those he criticizes as defiled.

To understand

He calls for their correction so that they may be sound in faith. The next verse accuses them of denying God through their actions while professing to know him.

A question

Whom do their actions deny, despite their claim to know him?
