How to win friends and influence people

The Apostle Paul could speak in ways that would get us in a world of trouble today. Just one of these that I just came across.

Titus 1.10 For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party. 11 They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach. 12 One of the Cretans, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” 13 This testimony is true.

Try saying that kind of thing about a group of people today and see how people respond.
