You have been built up upon the foundation laid by the Apostles and Prophets, Christ Jesus himself being 'the corner- stone.'

That is why it is said--'When he went up on high, he led his captives into captivity. And gave gifts to mankind.'

'Be angry, yet do not sin.' Do not let the sun go down upon your anger;

Let the man who steals steal no longer, but rather let him toil with his hands at honest work, so that he may have something to share with any one in want.

Never let any foul word pass your lips, but only such good words as the occasion demands, that they may be a help to those who hear them.

Let all bitterness, passion, anger, brawling, and abusive language be banished from among you, as well as all malice.

As for unchastity and every kind of impurity, or greed, do not let them even be mentioned among you, as befits Christ's People,

Do not let any one deceive you with specious arguments. Those are the sins that bring down the Wrath of God upon the disobedient.

For, although you were once in Darkness, now, by your union with the Lord, you are in the Light. Live as 'Children of Light'- -

For the outcome of life in the Light may be seen in every form of goodness, righteousness, and sincerity--

All such actions, when exposed, have their true character made manifest by the Light.

For everything that has its true character made manifest is clear as light. And that is why it is said--'Sleeper, awake! Arise from the dead, and the Christ shall give thee light!'

However, for you individually, let each love his wife as if she were himself; and the wife be careful to respect her husband.
