Title: Obey each other
Ephesians 5:15-21 Submit to One another Topic: 42. Wisdom. 2007. 9. 23.
◎ Introduction
: How the believer should live each day is very important to the cause of Christ and to the well-being of society.
※ A believer can help build society or become a destroyer. ② We can deliver the message of life to this world, or we can deliver the message of silence and death. That is why you must be careful and do it fully in your life.
1. The wise (15~17)
2. The wise life (18-21)
1. The wise person (15~17)
※ He wants us to do exactly what we are supposed to do “with close attention” and carefully.
One). Careful walkers (15)
(1) an unwise person
※ He means frivolous, thoughtless, careless, worldly minded person.
※ A person without wisdom believes that if ① he lives a very dignified, respected, and useful life, ② if he gives what he owes to God in various names, then God will accept him.
※ He doesn't take all the temptations and pitfalls of life seriously, and he doesn't care about living life to the fullest.
* Doesn't value living a careful, accurate, complete, disciplined, controlled life.
(2) a wise person
※ He is a thoughtful, thoughtful, careful, and spiritually minded person.
※ He knows God personally, is focused on God throughout the day, and pays attention and strives for every moment of his life.
※ His life is to make sure he is accurate, complete, disciplined, and controlled.
※ He knows that the only solution to life's evils and problems is Jesus Christ and His righteousness.
(Gal 5:16, Eph 4:1, 5:15, Col 2:6, 1 John 1:7, 1 John 2:6)
2). Those who bear the years (16)
※ “Save time” Time is a gift given by God and is already enjoyed. Saving time, therefore, is “using the time given to you to get something worthwhile.”
※ Why should we save time?
* Because the times are evil, the opportunities pass away.
(1) A believer must use his time wisely.
※ People do not buy or gain time. When a human being is born, he is born into time. It's just about using your time wisely in the time you've already been given. Don't waste your time.
※ We must use our time to do the best we can.
(2) A person must use his time by taking advantage of the opportunities that arise to him during the day.
※ Do not miss the opportunity.
: A righteous and godly life, witness to Christ, zeal for work, dedication to work and home, faithfulness to God and family, an opportunity to represent Christ and righteousness, an opportunity to pray.
※ What should we pray for?
(Matthew 6:9-13 The Lord's Prayer, Ephesians 3:14-21 Paul's prayer = To know the love of Christ)
