    Paul continues on contrasting the life of an unbeliever over against a Christ follower. The point is there should be a difference! We are not to mimic those who are far from God, but rather, we should imitate God.

    Eph. 5:1-20 Imitation is called the sincerest form of flattery! But we sometimes need to be careful who we are imitating! A new missionary recruit went to Venezuela for the first time. He was struggling with the language and didn’t understand a whole lot of what was going on. Intending to visit ...read more

    If we are to be imitators of God we need to be studying him so well that when people see us, they see HIM

    Who are you looking at? Eph 5:1-21 Growing up I used to love to watch an impressionist named Rich Little. He was so cool when doing John Wayne, Johnny Carson, Jay Leno and other such stars. One of my favorite shows was Rich Little doing “A Christmas Carol.” He did it solo, using his talents as ...read more

    This message looks at the essential ingredients needed to walk with God.

    What's That Smell

    Cologne and Perfume cover up the smell, but only for a time. Nice clothes and a fake attitude cover up hidden sins, but only for a time. The only way to be truly clean is to be seperated from sin.

    WHAT’S THAT SMELL INTRODUCTION One day while walking through the department store, I decided to stop by the cologne displays and try on some cologne. Now, I just couldn’t just try on one (could I?) I had to try on all the different brands that they had. Need less to say when I got into the ...read more

    Instead of hiding our eyes from God’s light, we should approach it and take it for our own use and to light the lives of others.

    From Darkness To Light Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 37 ratings
     | 11,497 views

    How are we to be people of integrity in a world that’s opposed to God? By being children of light, and living as light in the world. That means ensuring that the things we do are things that we’re proud of, things that we’d gladly do in the presence of Go

    What does it mean to be a person of integrity? Well, the word derives from the word integer, which means something that’s complete or whole in itself. So when you’re reading a letter like Ephesians, which concentrates so much on unity in the Church, it’s appropriate that we think about unity of our ...read more

    I borrowed the title from a Sermoncentral contributor because it was so good. But the rest of this sermon deals with sexual immorality and how the Christian needs to walk in a sexually darkened world.

    LIVING A G-RATED LIFE IN AN R-RATED WORLD Let me tell you about a couple I have become familiar with, Josh and Jerusha. These two grew up together in the same neighborhood, you could say.

    There is a lot of talk about true love. But what is true love? So much of what passes for true love is really the opposite. In Ephesians 5:3-7 we learn that there is such a thing as false love and that the consequences are serious for those who are fooled
