791. Ephesians - Chapter 5 - Be imitators of God, as dear children - April 14, 2025

Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 14. I will then key in on verse 5 - A faithful witness does not lie, But a false witness will utter lies. Friends, this verse is a reminder that God absolutely hates lying. Lying is not OK under any circumstances. We should simply tell the truth - regardless of the consequences. I will begin today's podcast by reviewing the three points I introduced on last Thursday's podcast (Episode #789 - If you did not get a chance to tune in I invite you to do so). We will then go over the first two verses of Ephesians, Chapter 5. By the end of today's lesson there are three things I ask that you consider:1. Be imitators of God, as dear children.2. We are to live so as to be dedicated totally to God.3. We are to God the fragrance of Christ.Scriptures referenced on today's podcast:Proverb 14:5; Ephesians 5:1-2; Luke 6:36; 1 Peter 1:14-16; 1 Thessalonians 4:9; Galatians 1:4; 2 Corinthians 2:14-15Call to Action - Ask yourselves these questions? Are you walking in the light (as Jesus did)? Are you walking in love, joy, peace, having mercy towards others, being slow to anger, and quick to forgive?
