This article investigates action of grace in Titus 2:11 and argues for a congeniality in this epistle with Pauline thought on grace as interpreted by John Barclay in Paul and the Gift. Barclay's disentanglement of the concept, including his newfound taxonomy for χάρις, advances Pauline studies significantly, yet it has not informed studies of the Pastoral Epistles. The article examines the juxtaposition of soteriology and ethics found in Titus 2:11–14 and 3:4–7, proposing that the subsequent passage is an elaboration of the first, which sheds light on the idiosyncratic notion of God's grace performing ethical training.

行动中的恩典：在致提图斯的信中探讨社会学和伦理学的交集

本文研究了《提多书》 2:11中恩典的举动，并与约翰·巴克莱在《保罗与礼物》中所解释的宝琳关于恩典的思想在本书中力求相称。巴克莱（Barclay）对概念的迷惑，包括他对χάρις的新分类法，极大地促进了波琳（Pauline）的研究，但尚未使对牧师书信的研究成为现实。本文研究了提多书2：11–14和3：4–7中社会学和伦理学的并列性，并提出随后的论述是对第一部分的阐述，这阐明了上帝恩典执行道德训练的特质概念。
