the knowledge of
the Son of God, as we
mature to
the full measure of
the stature of Christ.

tossed about by
the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by

Having
the understanding
darkened, being
alienated from
the life of God through
the ignorance that is in
them, because of
the blindness of
their heart:

darkened in
their understanding and
alienated from
the life of God because of
the ignorance that is in
them due to
the hardness of
their hearts.

deceitful desires;

to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
And that ye put on
the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true
holiness.

the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and
holiness.

neighbor, for we are all members of one another.
Be ye
angry, and sin not: let not
the sun go down upon your wrath:
“Be
angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let
the sun set upon your anger,
Neither give place to the devil.
Let him that
stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands
the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
He who has been
stealing must
steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with
the one in need.

the use of

the hearers.

listen.

grieve not
the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto
the day of
redemption.

grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for
the day of
redemption.

therefore followers of God, as
dear children;
Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children,

the saints,

hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of
greed.

whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor
covetous man, who is an
idolater, hath any inheritance in
the kingdom of Christ and of God.

greedy person (that is, an
idolater), has any inheritance in

deceive you with vain words: for because of
these things cometh
the wrath of God upon
the children of disobedience.
Let no one
deceive you with empty words, for because of such things
the wrath of God is coming on
the sons of disobedience.

(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.
Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
Test and prove what pleases the Lord.
And have no
fellowship with
the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove
them.
Have no
fellowship with
the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather
expose them.
For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
For it is shameful even to mention what
the disobedient do in secret.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by
the light: for
whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
But everything exposed by
the light becomes visible, for everything that is
illuminated becomes a light itself.
Wherefore he saith,
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from
the dead, and Christ shall give
thee light.
So it is said: “
Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from
the dead, and Christ will
shine on you.”
Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
