He also encouraged them all to live in a way that pleases God.<br><br>### How should the title of this book be translated?<br><br>Translators may choose to call this book by its traditional title, **_Titus_**. Or they may choose a clearer title, such as **_Paul’s Letter to Titus_** or **_A Letter to Titus_**.
