Conduct Consistent with Sound Teaching
2:1 But as for you , communicate the behavior that goes with sound teaching .

2:3 Older women likewise are to exhibit behavior fitting for those who are holy , not slandering , not slaves to excessive drinking , but teaching what is good .
2:4 In this way they will train the younger women to love their husbands , to love their children ,
2:5 to be self-controlled , pure , fulfilling their duties at home , kind , being subject to their own husbands , so that the message of God may not be discredited .
