Ephesians 5:8-14

Walk as Children of Light

Ephesians 5:8-14

Walk as Children of Light

8
for ye were once darkness, and now light in the Lord; as children of light walk ye,
9
for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,
10
proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord,
11
and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness and rather even convict,
12
for the things in secret done by them it is a shame even to speak of,
13
and all the things reproved by the light are manifested, for everything that is manifested is light;
14
wherefore he saith, `Arouse thyself, thou who art sleeping, and arise out of the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.'
