Ephesians 5:1-2 NIV
Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Be imitators of God.
Live a life of love.
Ephesians 5:15-18 NIV
Be very careful, then, how you live – not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery (dissipation). Instead be filled with the Spirit.
Don’t be controlled by too much wine, be controlled by the Holy Spirit.
You ask for the Holy Spirit to fill you. That’s it.
Galatians 5:22 NIV
“…the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
