Ephesians 5:3

Imitators Of God

² Live lovingly, just as the Messiah also loved us and gave himself for us as an offering and sacrifice, a fragrant aroma to God. ³ Do not let sexual sin, impurity of any kind, or greed even be mentioned among you, as is proper for saints. ⁴ Obscene, flippant, or vulgar talk is totally inappropriate. Instead, let there be thanksgiving.
