Sane in an insane world.
In Titus 2, Paul says that we must be steady in mind. We might render it: âPreserve your sanity.â The verb Peter uses is so”phronein; connected to that verb is a noun so”phrosune”, which is formed from the verb so”zein, âto keep safeâ, and the noun phrone”sis, âthe mindâ. A temperate man has the wisdom that âkeeps safe his mind,â to render this word literally.
The great characteristic of temperate wisdom is that it sees things in their proper proportions; it sees what things are important and what are not. When men view their life from the perspective of eternity, then God is given His proper place, and everything else settles into its proper place.
