A Church Keeping Pure for Jesus Christ
Text: Ephesians 5, [Eph 4:17-32; 5:1-21]
by Bob Young

Introduction
We begin in chapter 4. Do you remember your past?, v. 17-24

Specifics: v. 25-32

I. Live in love
Motivation: Christ loved us, gave self, sacrificed self for us. What does it mean to live in love?

II. Live in light
Motivation: remember that you were once darkness. What does it mean to live as children of light?

III. Live in wisdom
Motivation: be careful, no one purposefully falls, heart issues. What does it mean to live in wisdom?

Conclusion
Do I, do we? Live in love, light, wisdom? Immediately, yes.
Which of the ch. 4-5 instructions is most difficult for you? Focus on that one as we close. How can you be pure for Jesus Christ this week?
