Ephesians 5:1-6 - Imitators Of God

¹ Be ye therefore imitators of God, as his dear children; live together in love, ² for Christ loved us, and for us gave himself an offering and a sacrifice acceptable to God. ³ But fornication, and all impurity, or inordinate desire, let it not be approved by you, as being unworthy of christians: neither ribaldry, ⁴ nor buffoonry, which they call pleasantry, but is indecent: be you rather exercised in social virtue. ⁵ for this you know, that no licentious or dissolute person, no lewd libertine, that is, an idolater, hath any part in the kingdom of Christ, and of God.

⁶ let no man mislead you by vain reasonings: for it is for these vices, that the wrath of God lights upon the incredulous.
