The Dangers and Duties of Women
Titus 2:3-5
The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becomes holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine…


I. WOMEN HAVE PECULIAR DANGERS ACCORDING TO THEIR AGE. The older ones are tempted to seek the excitement of stimulants, or of slander; the younger ones to instability of affection, to impurity of life, or other inconsistency of conduct.
