This document outlines four characteristics that make Christians God's own special people according to Titus 2:14. First, they are a redeemed people who were slaves to sin but have been purchased by Christ's blood. Second, they are a law keeping people who are now under law to Christ after being redeemed from a life of breaking God's law. Third, they are a purified people with a purified record and life, unspotted from the world. Fourth, they are a zealous people who zealously worship and serve God, do church work, and do good to others.
