Episode description

Paul’s writings in Ephesians 5 can appear to be works. It has a lot of “do’s” and “don’ts” included in the writings. If we don’t have a grasp on what Paul is saying, we can become extremely judgmental. We can gauge spirituality by behavior and even condemn people and label them as not walking with the Lord because of their lifestyle. Lifestyle is very important, and Paul addresses that subject. After spending considerable time in chapters 1-3 telling us the change that has taken place in us, he tells us what life will look like. Remembering it always starts with who we are in Christ, our identity, not how we behave. When our character starts with our identity, we are authentic. God has some very enlightening insights in this portion of the letter, and we don’t want to miss a thing. Thanks for joining in today.

 Ephesians 5:1-14

Hebrews 10:11
