Ephesians: Walk In Love – Expose The Unfruitful Works of Darkness
Tonight I’m going to give another little talk. This will be the second time I have done this during our Ephesians series. Because, as we hit a few different scriptures, I just feel compelled to stop and speak more specifically about the places we come from and how what we are reading relates to situations there. And so that is what we will be doing again today. I will read a text before I speak on the topic tonight. It is Ephesians chapter 5; I will read from verse 11 down to verse 15. And the apostle Paul writes:
11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. 12 For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. 13 But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, 14 for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says,
“Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.
