The Bible is very clear on all we are to walk out our faith. There are many places in the Bible where you can find examples of how to behave and walk out your faith.
For the next few days were going to look at Ephesians 5 from the living Bible.
Ephesians 5
follow God‘s example in everything you do just as a much loved child imitates his father. The full of love for others, following the example of Christ who loved you and gave himself to God as a sacrifice to take away your sins. And God was pleased, for Christ love for you was like sweet perfume to him.
Let there be no sexual sin, impurity or greed among you. Let no one be able to accuse you of any such things. Dirty stories,foul talk and course jokes – these are not for you. Instead, remind each other of God’s goodness and be thankful.

As we began to look at this Bible study on Ephesians 5, I want you to really open your mind and think about things that are discussed here. It is no small matter on how we act. People are watching you to see it this Christian thing has any merit. The way we are going to impact people as Christian’s I we walk out our daily lives. It is very important that we first understand who we are in Christ and who we are moving towards becoming.
To Win people over in your daily life, it is not the big speech or WOW moments that God produces at times, but more of your behavior on a day by day basis that is going to show the love of Christ to others.
There is very specific directions above on how you can begin to change your behavior. Please work on these and make sure you stay away from them. Some of these may be very challenging as they are common place in water cooler talk and part of daily chatter we hear whether it is from friends or from the TV or internet.
We must learn to recognize this and do not engage in it. REFUSE to participate and protect your mind.
- Let there be NO sexual Sin
- Let there be No Impurity
- Let there be no GREED
- Do not engage in Dirty stories
- Do not swear and use foul language
- Do not engage in course joke
As we look at this list, You would probably agree,That most of the above Is around you are daily basis. Learn to recognize these things around you and if you have engaged in these things above, STOP today. We all have just the day in front of us to work on. 1 day at a time, learn to see these things for what they are. Pollution to you…the world’s pollution attempting to pull you away from what is good and pure. To pull you away from Christ.
