Berean Standard Bible
“For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,”
Ephesians 5 begins by calling believers to imitate God and to walk in love as Christ loved us. Paul then warns against sexual immorality, greed and empty words, noting that such things do not belong among God's holy people.
