1 Christian’s (Our Walk in Christ)
Ephesians 5 & 6 Sermon by Pastor Andy

2 a really consistent life is in the
There is nothing more beautiful on earth than a Christ centred Christian home.  The Christian life must be lived effectively first and foremost in our home. The hardest place to live a really consistent life is in the home. 

3 The greatest testimony we can offer to the world is a joyous, harmonious and peaceful Christian home.  God has made provision for every one of His children to live a consistent Christian life in their home.

4 WIVES, submit to your husbands

5 Ephesians 5: 22-24 22. “Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Saviour. 24. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.”

6 Husbands, love your wives

7 Ephesians 5: 25, 28 25. “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. 28. “In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.”

8 CHILDREN, obey your parents

9 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
Ephesians 6: 1-3 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2. “Honor your father and mother” which is the first commandment with a promise 3. “so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.”

10 PARENTS, bring your children up for the Lord
Ephesians 6: 4 “Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.”

11 SERVANTS, be obedient to your masters

12 Ephesians 6: 5-6 5.“Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. 6. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.”

13 Masters, consider the welfare of your servants
Ephesians 6: 9 “And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favouritism with him.”

14 Conclusion Ephesians 5-6: Be Imitators of God

15 We are to be imitators of God and live a life of love because Christ gave himself up for us as a sacrifice to God. Paul reminds us to give thanks for God in all things and submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
