Themes in Ephesians 5

Ephesians 5:1

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;

Ephesians 5:2

and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.

Ephesians 5:3

But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;

Ephesians 5:4

and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

Ephesians 5:5

For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

Ephesians 5:6

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

Ephesians 5:7

Therefore do not be partakers with them;

Ephesians 5:8

for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light

Ephesians 5:9

(for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

Ephesians 5:10

trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.

Ephesians 5:11

Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;

Ephesians 5:12

for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

Ephesians 5:13

But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

Ephesians 5:14

For this reason it says,
“Awake, sleeper,
And arise from the dead,
And Christ will shine on you.”

Ephesians 5:15

Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

Ephesians 5:16

making the most of your time, because the days are evil.

Ephesians 5:17

So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Ephesians 5:18

And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,

Ephesians 5:19

speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

Ephesians 5:20

always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

Ephesians 5:21

and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.

Ephesians 5:22

Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

Ephesians 5:23

For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.

Ephesians 5:24

But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.

Ephesians 5:25

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her,

Ephesians 5:26

so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

Ephesians 5:27

that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.

Ephesians 5:28

So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;

Ephesians 5:29

for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,

Ephesians 5:30

because we are members of His body.

Ephesians 5:31

For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.

Ephesians 5:32

This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.

Ephesians 5:33

Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
