START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Ephesians 5:3
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
NOT EVEN A HINT … THESE THINGS AR IMPROPER / EPHESIANS 5:3
In this sinful, rebellious world, there are many activities, behaviors and practices that are common for many people but completely unacceptable and “improper for God’s holy people.” This applies to our own actions and conversations as well as the behaviors of those with whom we associate (Ephesians 5:7). It includes what we willingly take into our minds through various forms of audio and visual media. We are to keep ourselves from “obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking” (Ephesians 5:4) – even when they are acceptable within our culture or popular entertainment. We cannot completely escape such things in all of our associations or in society as a whole, but we must not deliberately expose ourselves to, or take part in, supporting or approving of such things. We must take this Biblical instruction seriously, as the context surrounding this teaching gives a warning not to grieve the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30) and a warning regarding God’s judgment and losing part in His kingdom (Ephesians 5:5-7).
