| As Christ [[Sacrifice|sacrificed]] so should we sacrifice for one another. As He loved so should we [[Love|love]] in that sacrifice.

| The even go so far to say in [[Ephesians 5]]:11 to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works and to reprove [them].<Ref>Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].</Ref>
|-
| Nowhere are they saying you can go against these directives of the [[Apostles]] and still be saved, but it is not because the [[exercise authority]] but speak the truth. The words "Submitting yourselves"<Ref name="hupotasso">{{5293}}</Ref> is talking about a natural order in [[love]]. 
|-
| Why in [[2 Timothy 3]]:5 are we warned about those "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."
|-
| The [[Modern Christians]] are drawn to a false gospel where there is no need of real repentance.
|-
| We must be [[Doers of the Word]] and not hearers only.
|-
| in verses 3 through 5 Paul again talks about those who shall "[[Not inherit the kingdom]]".
|-
| What do they mean no '''[[fornication]]''', uncleanness, nor [[covetousness]]? which we also see in [[Colossians 3]]:5 "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; [[fornication]], uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and [[covetousness]], '''which is [[idolatry]]'''": 
|-
| Also the terms "filthiness<Ref>{{151}}</Ref>, nor foolish talking<Ref>{{3473}}</Ref>, nor jesting<Ref>{{2160}}</Ref>" seem to be the antitheses of "giving of thanks" which is the Greek word [[Eucharist|eucharistia]].<Ref name="thanks">{{2168}}</Ref>
|-
| All three of these words only appear once in the Bible here in Paul. They are in between two other groups of three words or phrases. "filthiness(dishonoring), nor foolish talking(impiously speaking), nor jesting(treating serious issues with deliberate condescension.)" which again is all the antitheses of the true [[Eucharist]] of Christ.
|-
| Paul also again equates three words or phrases "no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man" with [[idolatry|idolaters]]
|-
| This really all about not ''eating things sacrificed to idols'' which is about the error of [[Balaam]] and the [[Nicolaitan]]<Ref>Revelation 2:14  But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of [[Balaam]], who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication... 20  Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.</Ref> and the [[wages of unrighteousness]].<Ref>2 Peter 2:15  Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of [[Balaam]] the son of Bosor, who loved the [[wages of unrighteousness]];
: Jude 1:11  Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of [[Cain]], and ran greedily after the error of [[Balaam]] for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

=== 'Walk in love === 

1 ¶  Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2  And walk in [[love]], as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a [[sacrifice]] to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

=== No inheritance in  the kingdom === 

3 ¶  But [[fornication]]<Ref>{{4202}}</Ref> , and all uncleanness<Ref>{{167}}</Ref>, or [[covetousness]]<Ref>{{151}}</Ref>, let it not be once named among you, as becometh [[saints]];

4  Neither filthiness<Ref>{{2821}}</Ref>, nor [[foolish]] talking<Ref>{{3473}}</Ref>, nor jesting<Ref>{{2160}}</Ref>, which are not convenient<Ref>{{433}}</Ref><Ref>{{3756}}</Ref>: but rather giving of thanks<Ref name="thanks9">{{2169}}</Ref>.

5  For this ye know, that no whoremonger<Ref>{{4205}}</Ref>, nor unclean person<Ref>{{169}}</Ref>, nor covetous man<Ref>{{4123}}</Ref><Ref name="covetnot">{{covetnot}}</Ref><Ref name="Isidolatry">{{Isidolatry}}</Ref>, who is an [[idolater]]<Ref>{{1496}}</Ref><Ref name="fornidols">{{fornidols}}</Ref>, hath any [[Not inherit the kingdom|inheritance in the kingdom]] of Christ and of God.

6  Let no man [[deceive]] you with vain<Ref>{{2756}}</Ref> words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.<Ref>{{543}}</Ref>

7  Be not ye therefore partakers<Ref>{{4830}}</Ref> with them.

8  For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

9  (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and [[righteousness]] and truth;)

10  Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

11  And have no [[fellowship]] with the unfruitful<Ref>{{175}}</Ref> works<Ref>{{2041}}</Ref> of darkness, but rather [[rebuke|reprove]] them.

12  For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

13  But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

14  Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

15  See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as [[foolish|fools]], but as wise,

16  Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

18  And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

19  Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

20  Giving thanks<Ref name="thanks">{{2168}}</Ref> always for all things unto God and the [[Father]] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

=== Wives and Husbands ===

21 ¶  Submitting yourselves<Ref name="hupotasso">{{5293}}</Ref> one to another in the fear of God.

22  Wives, submit yourselves<Ref name="hupotasso">{{5293}}</Ref> unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23  For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the [[saviour]] of the body.

24  Therefore as the church is subject<Ref name="hupotasso">{{5293}}</Ref> unto Christ, so let the wives be to  own husbands in every thing.

25  Husbands, [[love]] your wives, even as Christ also [[love]]d the church, and gave himself for it;

26  That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27  That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

28  So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

29  For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

30  For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31  For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32  This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

33  Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
