Charles Spurgeon Commentary Titus 2:6

"the younger men likewise exhort to be sober-minded:" — Titus 2:6 (ASV)

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. (Titus 2:6)

They are full of spirits, they are very sanguine, they are apt to be carried away with novelties; exhort them to have that which is thought to be a virtue of age, namely, sobriety. Let them be old when they are young that they may be young when they are old.

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. (Titus 2:6)

That exhortation is as necessary in London as it was in Crete.

Young men often know a great deal, or think they do; and they are very apt to be intoxicated with the idea of knowing so much, and being able to do so much, so that the exhortation to them is to be sober minded.
