- Unity In the of Christ
- 1
- As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live
- a life worthy of the calling you have received.
- 2
- Be completely humble and gentle;
- be patient, bearing with one another in love.
- 3
- Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
- 4
- There is one body and one Spirit--
- just as you were called to one hope when you were called--
- 5
- one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
- 6
- one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
- 7
- But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.
- 8
- This is why it says: "When he ascended on high,
- he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men."
- 9
- (What does "he ascended" mean except that he also
- descended to the lower, earthly regions?
- 10
- He who descended is the very one who ascended higher
- than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)
- 11
- It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets,
- some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
- 12
- to prepare God's people for works of service,
- so that the body of Christ may be built up
- 13
- until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge
- of the Son of God and become mature,
- attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
- 14
- Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves,
- and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and
- by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.
- 15
- Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up
- into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.
- 16
- From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament,
- grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
- Living as Children of Light
- 17
- So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord,
- that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
- 18
- They are darkened in their understanding and separated from
- the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them
- due to the hardening of their hearts.
- 19
- Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality
- so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.
- 20
- You, however, did not come to know Christ that way.
- 21
- Surely you heard of him and were taught in him
- in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus.
- 22
- You were taught, with regard to your former way of life,
- to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
- 23
- to be made new in the attitude of your minds;
- 24
- and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
- 25
- Therefore each of you must put off falsehood
- and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one body.
- 26
- "In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry,
- 27
- and do not give the devil a foothold.
- 28
- He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work,
- doing something useful with his own hands,
- that he may have something to share with those in need.
- 29
- Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths,
- but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs,
- that it may benefit those who listen.
- 30
- And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,
- with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
- 31
- Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling
- and slander, along with every form of malice.
- 32
- Be kind and compassionate to one another,
- forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
