Sunday, January 13, 2013 Speaker: Paul Margerrison Ephesians 5: Message 1 in our 5-part series on Ephesians 5 & 6.

2 Ephesians Chapter 5 v “Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children 2and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Ephesians 5:1&2 “32Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” Ephesians 4:32 “..to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.” Ephesians 4:1

3 Ephesians Chapter 5 v “4For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” Ephesians 1:4 “In love 5he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ,” Ephesians 1:5 “19Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow-citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household.” Ephesians 2:19

4 Ephesians Chapter 5 v “21In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.” Ephesians 2:21 “6This mystery is that through the gospel the gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 3:6

5 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 1 - 20 Living together in unity.
Living as children of light in all truth and holiness Ephesians 3:6 Live a life of love. Ephesians 5:1-7 Live as children of light. Ephesians 5:8-14 Live as people who are wise. Ephesians 5:15-21

6 Ephesians Chapter 5 v “8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 “34A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34&35

7 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 37Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. Matthew 22:37 “14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. Anyone who does not love remains in death.” 1 John 3:14 20If anyone says “I love God” yet hates his brother, he is a liar. 1 John 4:20 “39…love your neighbour as yourself” Matthew 22:39

8 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.  4 Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.  5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person - such a person is an idolater - has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Ephesians 5:3-5

9 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.  7 Therefore do not be partners with them. Ephesians 5:6&7 31 Jesus answered them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.  32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” Luke 5:31&32

10 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.  6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.  7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 1 John 1:5-7

11 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 9(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) Ephesians 5:9 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16

12 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 12For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. Ephesians 5:12

13 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 15Be very careful, then, how you live – not as unwise but as wise, 16making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15&16 8Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 1Peter 5:8

14 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, Ephesians 5:19 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:20

15 Ephesians Chapter 5 v 1 - 20 We should: Encourage One Another
Edify One Another Exhort One Another We are: People who celebrate People who are contented
