A Better us-Biblical thoughts
Ephesians 4:17-26 17. This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
1. Don't be confused-know what you believe and why. The world will try and confuse us if we let it.
18. Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
2. Don't be in the dark with the Devil and his crowd. Study the Bible and know the light of God's good word.
3. Don't be ignorant. We live in an age of info. KNow what we need to know-especially from the Bible.
19. Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
4. Don't be controlled by lust for things. The Devil likes that. Things are not more important than people...
5. Don't be greedy. Is money what you are about. If all you have is money-you don't have much.
20. But ye have not so learned Christ;
6. learn all you can about the Jesus of the gospels and the Bible- the real Jesus.
21. If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
7. Learn the truth- Jesus is the truth. Make it a goal to learn all the Bible you can.
22. That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
8. Don't get stuck in the past- Jesus is alive now, here in the real world. Live for the Lord and enjoy the present blessings.
23. And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
9. Be renewed in our minds- we need to make some big changes there-yes, us... How do we do that? That is tomorrows blog.
24. And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
25. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
26. Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
