Instructions for Christian living
Ephesians 4: 17-29
Live no longer as Gentiles do. When we learnt of Christ, we were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is Jesus. We were taught with regard to our former ways of life, to discard our old selves which was corrupted by it's deceitful desires. We are made new and created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Therefore speak in truth and do not deceive, in anger do not sin, do not give the devil a foothold, don't let unwholesome talk leave your mouth but only what is helpful for building up others. Be free of bitterness and be compassionate towards your brothers and sisters in Christ and learn to forgive just in Christ God forgave you.
