Christian Walk

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Leslie Verghese on Sep 6, 2018

Walk in Unity

As we enter Chapter 4 of Ephesians, it gives us a beautiful example of how Paul admonishes a Christian to WALK. (1) Unity (4:1-16). (2) Purity (4:17-5:17). (3) Harmony (5:18-6:9). (4) Victory. (6-e t) I wonder if we have under-emphasized the importance of the Christian walk. The first three ...read more
