AI-assisted, sourcedEphesians 4:25-32Living the new life
About Ephesians 4Paul urges the readers to "walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called," keeping "the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace," for "There is one body, and one Spirit," with "One Lord, one faith, one baptism." Christ "gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints," so that they are no longer "tossed to and fro" but grow up into him by "speaking the truth in love." They must not walk "as other Gentiles walk" but "put off" the old man and "put on the new man," putting away lying, anger, stealing and bitterness, and be "kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
