Ephesians . 01 02 03 04 05 06 ..... unity of the Spirit
Image

04:01 .. therefore I .. the prisoner of the Lord .. implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called

04:02 .. with all humility and gentleness .. with patience .. showing tolerance for one another in love
04:03 .. being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace
04:04 .. there is one body and one Spirit .. just as also you were called in one hope of your calling
04:05 .. one Lord .. one faith .. one baptism
04:06 .. one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all

04:07 .. but to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift
04:08 .. therefore it says .. when he ascended on high .. he led captive a host of captives .. and he gave gifts to men
04:09 .. (now this expression .. he ascended” .. what does it mean except that he also had descended into the lower parts of the earth
04:10 .. he who descended is himself also he who ascended far above all the heavens .. so that he might fill all things)
04:11 .. and he gave some as apostles .. and some as prophets .. and some as evangelists .. and some as pastors and teachers
04:12 .. for the equipping of the saints for the work of service .. to the building up of the body of Christ
04:13 .. until we all attain to the unity of the faith .. and of the knowledge of the Son of God .. to a mature man ..
......... to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ
04:14 .. as a result .. we are no longer to be children .. tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine ..
......... by the trickery of men .. by craftiness in deceitful scheming
04:15 .. but speaking the truth in love .. we are to grow up in all aspects into him who is the head .. even Christ
04:16 .. from whom the whole body .. being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies .. according to the proper working of each individual part ..
.........causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love

.................. the Christian’s walk

04:17 .. so this I say .. and affirm together with the Lord .. that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk .. in the futility of their mind
04:18 .. being darkened in their understanding .. excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them ..
......... because of the hardness of their heart
04:19 .. and they .. having become callous .. have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness
04:20 .. but you did not learn Christ in this way

04:21 .. if indeed you have heard him and have been taught in him .. just as truth is in Jesus
04:22 .. that .. in reference to your former manner of life .. you lay aside the old self .. which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit
04:23 .. and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind
04:24 .. and put on the new self .. which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth

04:25 .. therefore .. laying aside falsehood .. speak truth each one of you with his neighbor .. for we are members of one another
04:26 .. be angry .. and yet do not sin .. do not let the sun go down on your anger
04:27 .. and do not give the devil an opportunity
04:28 .. he who steals must steal no longer .. but rather he must labor .. performing with his own hands what is good ..
......... so that he will have something to share with one who has need
04:29 .. let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth .. but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment ..
......... so that it will give grace to those who hear
04:30 .. do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God .. by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption
04:31 .. let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you .. along with all malice
04:32 .. be kind to one another .. tender-hearted .. forgiving each other .. just as God in Christ also has forgiven you

Considering to what state and condition God has called us in Christ Jesus .. let us approve ourselves good Christians .. living up to our profession and calling .. as members of his Body .. the Holy Spirit will endue us with spiritual gifts for his service that we might confirm and build up others in the faith and that we might dispense the saving doctrines of his grace to the unsaved . . . . v 8 when Christ’s body was laid in the grave .. his spirit descended into Hades (the abode of departed spirits) .. and proclaimed the victory of the cross .. at his ascension to the Father after three days he delivered from Hades the spirits of the justified and took them to Paradise above .. leaving the unsaved spirits in Hades .. the spirit of the Christian at death now goes to be with him above .. Phil 1:23 .. 2 Cor 5:9
