AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 5:1 Therefore become imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]; |
Bible Question: What does it mean to be an imitator of God? How is this possible. who and what is our example. |
Bible Answer: Dear Shael, Ephesians spells out the answer pretty clearly: Walk consist with who we are (4:1) Patience and meekness (4:2) Establishing peace (4:3) Maturite, be steadfast in truth (4:14) Speak truth in love (4:15) Live pure lives (4:22) Be righteous and holy (not fained) (4:24) Be angry but without sin (4:26) Never provide Satan a foothold (4:27) Labor well (4:28) Minister grace even in speech (4:29) Cooperate in the Father's Eternal Purpose (4:30) Show kindness (4:32) Forgive as God forgave us (4:32) I think you get the point. You can pull all of this from Paul's epistle. Paul rarely makes a statement like this that isn't surrounded with detailed explanation. That's the cool thing about Paul! In Him, Doc |
