Living as Children of Light

Ephesians 4: 21-32

v21 Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from Him,

v22 throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception.

v23 Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.

v24 Put on your new nature, created to be like God--truly righteous and holy


v26 And 'don't sin by letting anger control you.'Don't let the sun go down while you are still angry,

v27 for anger gives a foothold to the devil


v29 Don't use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them


v30 And do not bring sorrow to God's Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, He has identified you as His own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption.


v31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior.

v32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
