Ephesians had to abandon completely their old identity
as pagans to live as Gods children. God intended to transform them by affecting
their thought-lives, attitudes, speech, and conduct. They were ¡§to be like God¡¨ (4:23,
24). Only Christlike lives give fitting to be like God.

The
metamorphosis that changes a caterpillar to a butterfly is profound. It¡¦s
almost as if a completely new animal is created during its time in the cocoon. Today¡¦s passage from Ephesians compares our lives before and after being
transformed by Jesus. Let¡¦s explore what this new creation looks like!

17. So I tell you this, and
insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in
the futility of their thinking. 18. They are darkened in their understanding
and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them
due to the hardening of their hearts. 19. Having lost all sensitivity, they
have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of
impurity, with a continual lust for more.

Pagans
reject the little truth they knew. They sinned without shame. Their former
lifestyle was totally incompatible with God¡¦s call to be self-giving like Christ (see 4:1-16; 5:2). Paul¡¦s
description of pre-Christian existence applies to all of us before God¡¦s grace
rescued us (2:1-10). Our old way of life and our personal history may no
longer determine our identity; our new Lord must Christ.

Christ that way. 21. Surely you heard
of him and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus.
22. You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your
old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be made new
in the attitude of your minds; 24. and to put on the new self, created to
be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Paul told the
Ephesians to leave behind the old life of sin, since they were followers of
Christ, if we keep listening to God, we will be changing all the time. Although
change may be slow, it comes as we trust God to change us. Our old way of life
before we believed in Christ is completely in the past, we should put it behind
us like old clothes to be thrown away. We must put on the new road, head in the
new direction and have the new way of thinking that the Holy Spirit gives. (Colossians 3:15- Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts,
since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful).

25. Therefore, each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully
to his neighbor, for we are all members of one body.
26."In
your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry,
27. and do not give the
devil a foothold.
28. He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing
something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with
those in need.
29. Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your
mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their
needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
30. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed
for the day of redemption.
31. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander,
along with every form of malice.
32. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just
as in Christ God forgave you. 5:1. Be imitators of God,
therefore, as dearly loved children.
5:2 and live a life of
love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering
and sacrifice to God.

The
Bible does not tell us that we should not feel
angry, but it points out that it is important to handle our anger properly. If
vented thoughtlessly, anger can hurt others and destroy relationships. IF
bottled up inside, it can cause us to become bitter and destroy us from within.
Paul tells us to deal with our anger immediately in a way that builds
relationships rather than destroys them. If we nurse our anger, we will give
Satan an opportunity to divide us. Are you angry with someone right now? What
can you do to resolve your differences? Don¡¦t let the day end before you begin
to work on mending your relationship.
v.4:28-32. §Ú̪º¥Í¬¡¤è¦¡©Î·|¥s¸tÆF¾á¼~¡C«Où§i¶D§ÚÌnĵ§Ù´c¨¥»y©M¤ßÃhWŪ¡A¤£n¥Î¼««ã¡B¯Éª§¡B·´Á½ªº¸Ü¥h´c«Ý§O¤H

We
can grieve the Holy Spirit by the way we live. Paul warns us against
unwholesome language, bitterness, improper use of anger, brawling, slander and
bad attitudes toward others. Instead of acting that way, we should be
forgiving, just as God has forgiven us. Are you grieving or pleasing God with
your attitudes and actions? Act in love toward your brothers and sisters in
Christ, just as God acted in love by sending his Son to die for our sins.

The
Holy Spirit within us is a seal or guarantee that we belong to God. The Holy
Spirit is God¡¦s seal that we belong to him and his deposit guaranteeing that he
will do what he has promised. The Holy Spirit is like a down payment, a
deposit, a validating signature on the contract. The presence of the Holy Sprit
in us demonstrates the genuineness of our faith, proves that we are God¡¦s
children, and secures eternal life for us. His power works in us to transform
us now, and what we experience now is a taste of the total change we will
experience in eternity.
