Ngokutsho kweZibhalo Ezingcwele, yayinguPaul oNgcwele owaqala washumayela kwaye wenza ubuKrestu baziwa kwi Isiqithi samaGrike sekrete. Kukwakholelwa ukuba wayengowokuqala ukuhlela ibandla lamaKrestu.
UPaul nabalandeli bakhe babesiya eRoma kwaye safika isaqhwithi esikhulu elwandle kwaye kungenxa yeso sizathu sokuba bafika eKrete, eKali Limenes, oko kukuthi, kumazibuko amahle, njengoko kuchaziwe kwiZenzo zabaPostile, (27 -8).
U-Saint Paul, emva kokuba ekhululwe kwintolongo yakhe yokuqala e-Roma, wabuyela eKrete, kungelo xesha ke apho alungiselela khona umfundi wakhe uTito onemvelaphi yamaGrike, i-Cretan, kwaye emshiya ephethe ibandla lonke lamaKristu kwesi siqithi.
INgcwele uPaul yamshiya uTito esiqithini ukuba enze abadala, abangazukungonakali, (Tito 1- 4-5)
UTito kamva waba ngu ubishophu wokuqala waseGortyna. UTito kuthiwa wohlule iKrete yaba zii-diococes eziyi-9, kodwa kukwabikwa ukuba olu hlengahlengiso luye kamva.
Ngexesha likaTitus ubuKristu kwi Isiqithi saseKrete yahlangabezana nokuchaswa okunamandla ngakumbi kumaYuda.
UTitus uphumelele nguFilipu, ophumelele into ebaluleke kakhulu, ukuba amaRoma ayeke ukutshutshisa amaKristu. Nangona kusaziwa ukuba iintshutshiso zika-Emperor Decius kumaKristu zazisoyikeka, ngakumbi eKrete.
Ubuninzi bamaxhoba ka-Emperor Decius aguqulwa aba ngabafeli-nkolo bokuqala beCretan Christian Church kwaye babizwa ngokuba ngabangcwele abalishumi.
Ngenkulungwane ye-XNUMX, kulapho ubuKristu baseCretan bagqiba ukwakha i I-Basilica kaSaint Titus waseGortina, yiyo loo nto yaba sisikhumbuzo sokuqala samaKristu.
