3 EPHESIANS 5:1-2 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

4 EPHESIANS 5:18-23 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit,  Speaking Singing & making music Giving thanks Submitting to one another (through v. 23)

5 PHILIPPIANS 2:5-8 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; 7 rather, he made himself nothing     by taking the very nature of a servant,     being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a man,     he humbled himself     by becoming obedient to death—         even death on a cross!

6 God is the most selfless, compassionate, giving Being in the universe who uses His position of power and privilege to serve others instead of Himself.

7 KINGDOM PRINCIPLE God’s image bearers use their position of privilege for the sake of the oppressed instead of serving themselves

8 EPHESIANS 5:21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

21 1 CORINTHIANS 6:16-17 Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.” 17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.

22 EPHESIANS 5:33 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

24 God created us as image-bearing males and females so that men and women could each reveal, by the way we relate, something of the wonder of how the persons of the Trinity relate.

25 God designed men as “memory makers” to move toward women—not just sexually but relationally—as a reflection God’s initiative to move toward lost humanity to reconcile them to Himself.

26 Likewise, God created women as ones who welcome movement toward them—not just in a sexual way but relationally—as a reflection of God who warmly welcomes redeemed humans to join in the Divine Community.

27 WHAT MEN & WOMEN WANT: Do I have what it takes? Am I desirable/loved?
