Ephesians 5:7-16 - Walk Like Children Of Light

⁷ So do not be partners with them. ⁸ For once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light, ⁹ for the fruit that the light produces consists of every form of goodness, righteousness, and truth. ¹⁰ Determine what pleases the Lord, ¹¹ and have nothing to do with the unfruitful actions that darkness produces. Instead, expose them for what they are. ¹² For it is shameful even to mention what is done by these disobedient people in secret. ¹³ But everything that is exposed to the light becomes visible, ¹⁴ for the light is making everything visible. That is why it says, "Wake up, sleeper! Arise from the dead, and the Messiah will shine on you.''

¹⁵ So, then, be careful how you live. Do not be unwise but wise, ¹⁶ making the best use of your time because the times are evil.
