10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them.
10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
10 As for a person who stirs up division, after warning him once and then twice, have nothing more to do with him,
10 Warn a quarrelsome person once or twice, but then be done with him.
10 Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition,
10 If people are causing divisions among you, give a first and second warning. After that, have nothing more to do with them.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Titus 3:10
Commentary on Titus 3:8-11
(Read Titus 3:8-11)
When the grace of God towards mankind has been declared, the necessity of good works is pressed. Those who believe in God, must make it their care to maintain good works, to seek opportunities for doing them, being influenced by love and gratitude. Trifling, foolish questions must be avoided, and subtle distinctions and vain inquiries; nor should people be eager after novelties, but love sound doctrine which tends most to edifying. Though we may now think some sins light and little, if the Lord awaken the conscience, we shall feel even the smallest sin heavy upon our souls.
