Into the Light
The Apostle Paul says that every person has one of only two identities before God: darkness or light. Our identity before God determines our inheritance in the Kingdom of God. The resounding call from Ephesians 5:3-14 is to leave the darkness and walk in the light, as true children of light. It is only when we are light behaving as light that we experience true joy and freedom before God, and true community with those around us.

In Ephesians 4:25-5:2, the Apostles Paul shows us what true gospel community should look like - a community of honesty, generosity, encouragement and forgiveness. Furthermore it is to be a community marked by utter others-centeredness that puts the gospel constantly on display for the waiting world to see.

Living Renewed Lives
Jesus overcame our moral inability to please God by living a life of perfect obedience to the Father, dying a sacrificial death on our behalf, and by doing so winning new, regenerate hearts for those who would trust in him. In Ephesians 4:17-24, the Apostle Paul describes how, with these regenerate hearts, we can put off our old sinful orientations by renewing our minds, put on our new selves, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness, and live lives with restored walks.
