Ephesians 5:1-8
1 |
Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. |
2 |
And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. |
3 |
But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; |
4 |
neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. |
5 |
For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. |
6 |
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. |
7 |
Therefore do not be partakers with them. |
8 |
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light |
