EPHESIANS

Ephesians 5

1Be ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children:
1 John 4:11, 1 John 4:11, 1 Peter 1:15, 1 Peter 1:16, 1 Peter 1:15
2And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.
John 13:34, John 13:34, Galatians 2:20, Galatians 2:20, Colossians 3:14
3But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:
Colossians 3:5, Colossians 3:5, Ephesians 5:5, Ephesians 5:5, Galatians 5:19
4Or obscenity or foolish talking or scurrility, which is to no purpose: but rather giving of thanks.
Colossians 3:8, Colossians 3:8, Ephesians 4:29, Ephesians 4:29, 1 Thessalonians 5:18
5For know you this and understand: That no fornicator or unclean or covetous person (which is a serving of idols) hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Galatians 5:21, Galatians 5:21, 1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Corinthians 6:10, 1 Corinthians 6:9
6Let no man deceive you with vain words. For because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the children of unbelief.
Romans 1:18, Romans 1:18, Matthew 24:4, Matthew 24:4, Colossians 2:8
7Be ye not therefore partakers with them.
Revelation 18:4, Revelation 18:4, 1 Timothy 5:22, 1 Timothy 5:22, Ephesians 5:11
8For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.
John 8:12, John 8:12, 1 John 1:7, 1 John 1:7, Acts 26:18
9For the fruit of the light is in all goodness and justice and truth:
1 John 3:9, 1 John 3:10, 1 John 3:9, 1 John 3:10, 3 John 1:11
10Proving what is well pleasing to God.
Romans 12:1, Romans 12:2, Romans 12:1, Romans 12:2, Psalms 19:14
11And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness: but rather reprove them.
Romans 13:12, Romans 13:12, 1 Timothy 5:20, 1 Timothy 5:20, 2 John 1:10
12For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.
Ephesians 5:3, Ephesians 5:3, Romans 2:16, Ecclesiastes 12:14, Jeremiah 23:24
13But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for all that is made manifest is light.
John 3:20, John 3:21, John 3:20, John 3:21, Hosea 2:10
14Wherefore he saith: Rise, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.
Isaiah 60:1, Isaiah 60:1, Romans 13:11, Romans 13:12, Romans 13:11
15See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,
Colossians 4:5, Colossians 4:5, James 3:13, James 3:13, Philippians 1:27
16But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Colossians 4:5, Colossians 4:5, Amos 5:13, Amos 5:13, John 12:35
17Wherefore, become not unwise: but understanding what is the will of God.
Romans 12:2, Romans 12:2, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Ephesians 5:15
18And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury: but be ye filled with the Holy Spirit,
Proverbs 20:1, Proverbs 20:1, Romans 13:13, Romans 13:13, Luke 1:15
19Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord:
Colossians 3:16, Colossians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 14:26, 1 Corinthians 14:26, Psalms 95:2
20Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:
Colossians 3:17, Colossians 3:17, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Hebrews 13:15
21Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ.
Philippians 2:3, Philippians 2:3, Ephesians 5:24, Ephesians 5:24, Ephesians 5:22
22Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord:
Colossians 3:18, Colossians 4:1, Colossians 3:18, Colossians 4:1, 1 Peter 3:1
23Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body.
1 Corinthians 11:3, 1 Corinthians 11:10, 1 Corinthians 11:3, 1 Corinthians 11:10, Colossians 1:18
24Therefore as the church is subject to Christ: so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things.
Ephesians 5:33, Ephesians 5:33, Colossians 3:20, Titus 2:7, Colossians 3:20
25Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church and delivered himself up for it:
1 Peter 3:7, 1 Peter 3:7, Colossians 3:19, Colossians 3:19, Ephesians 5:28
26That he might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life:
John 15:3, John 15:3, Hebrews 10:22, Hebrews 10:22, John 17:17
27That he might present it to himself, a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Colossians 1:22, Colossians 1:22, Hebrews 9:14, Hebrews 9:14, 1 Peter 1:19
28So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
Ephesians 5:25, Genesis 2:21, Genesis 2:24, Ephesians 5:25, Genesis 2:21
29For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:
Ephesians 5:31, Ezekiel 34:14, Ezekiel 34:15, Ephesians 5:31, Ezekiel 34:14
30Because we are members of him, body, of his flesh and of his bones.
1 Corinthians 6:15, 1 Corinthians 6:15, 1 Corinthians 12:12, 1 Corinthians 12:27, 1 Corinthians 12:12
31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother: and shall cleave to his wife. And they shall be two in one flesh.
Genesis 2:24, Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5, Matthew 19:5, Mark 10:7
32This is a great sacrament: but I speak in Christ and in the church.
Revelation 21:2, Revelation 21:2, 2 Corinthians 11:2, 2 Corinthians 11:2, Isaiah 54:5
33Nevertheless, let every one of you in particular love for his wife as himself: And let the wife fear her husband.
1 Peter 3:2, 1 Peter 3:7, 1 Peter 3:2, 1 Peter 3:7, Ephesians 5:22
