    The Way You Walk Scripture Text: Ephesians 5 Introduction: -- Plato once said: “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark: the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” Instead of trusting Christ, modern-day thinkers insist on using human wisdom alone ...read more
