1 So then, imitate God since you're his much-loved children.2 Live in love, just as Christ loved you. He gave himself for us, a gift and sacrificial offering to God like a sweet-smelling perfume.3 Sexual immorality or any kind of indecency or greed should never be mentioned concerning you, as God's people should not be doing such things.4 Obscene talk, stupid chatter, and coarse jokes are totally inappropriate—instead you should be thanking God.5 You know it's absolutely sure that no-one who is sexually immoral, or commits indecency, or who is greedy, or is an idol-worshiper will inherit anything in the kingdom of Christ and God.6 Don't let anyone fool you with lying words, for it's because of such things that God's judgment is passed on the children of disobedience.7 So don't partner with them in this.8 At one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. You are to live as children of light9 (and the fruit of light is everything that's good and right and true),10 demonstrating what the Lord really appreciates.
