The Acts of the Apostles Acts 20 – Ephesus … “I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears” (verse 31 KJV) Sunday – January 20, 2019

To Heed The Warning Acts 20:32, “And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build (you) up, and to give (you) the inheritance among all them that are sanctified.”

Grace “Teaches” Titus 2:11 Educates, instructs, trains. cf. 1 Timothy 2:4 To expel from our lives “ungodliness” and “worldly lusts.” To live displaying changed relationships: To self. (Self-mastery) To neighbors. (Fairness) To God. (Reverence and worship)

Grace “Teaches” What God has provided. Sacrifice. John 3:16; Hebrews 2:9; Romans 3:23-26 How man is saved “by grace.” Ephesians 2:8 “Though faith.” cf. Romans 10:17 Grace that saves comes through faith– by the word of God. Acts 20:32, 24 Grace that saves through faith, works. James 2:24-26 The lawless immoral life is contrary to: The grace of God. cf. 1 Timothy 1:8-11 The gospel of the grace of God. Acts 20:24 The word of His grace. Acts 20:32

We are taught to “Deny” … aparneomai – to affirm that one has no connection with. cf. Matthew 26:34-35,75 (Strong) cf. Acts 3:13; 7:35 – To “abrogate, forsake, or renounce a thing.” Evil. Titus 2:12 Good. 1 Timothy 5:8; 2 Timothy 3:5; Revelation 2:13; 3:8. (Vine) “To deny oneself.” Matthew 16:24 Deliberate act, … a renunciation of “world passions.”

Deny “Ungodliness” asebeu – General impiety (Romans 1:18ff; Titus 2:12). Without reverence for God. Romans 5:6 (Vine) Progressive. cf. 2 Timothy 2:16 Must eliminate ALL ungodliness. Colossians 3:5ff Why must we deny ALL ungodliness? God of this world will blind us. 2 Corinthians 4:4 Will not inherit the kingdom of heaven. Galatians 5:19ff

Deny “Worldly Lusts” “Worldly” – “of or pertaining to this world,” the natural and fleshly realm. “Lusts” – “Strong desires,” especially “strong desires that are evil and grow out of fleshly appetites.” Includes: Lust for unholy riches. 1 Timothy 6:6f; Matthew 6:19f Sinful pleasures and evil habits. Hebrews 11:24f All wickedness. Titus 3:3 We must deny ALL UNGODLINESS AND WORLDLY LUSTS. Colossians 3:9; Galatians 5:24

We must live … “Soberly” sophronos – With sound mind. … To possess control over one’s mind, desires, passions and appetites … (cf. Titus 2:1,4,6; 1 Thessalonians 5:6,8) Must THINK RIGHT. 2 Corinthians 10:5; Philippians 4:8

We must live … “Righteously” dikaios – “doing justly” and “the right conduct; of what is right; by the right standard.” Uses of this word. Character and work of God. Psalms 50:6 Work and death of Christ. Romans 5:18 Revelation of the word of God. Psalms 119:172 Individuals who understand, believe, and DO the will of God. Psalms 23; Acts. 10:35; cf. Romans 10:3 and Matthew 7:21-23

We must live … “Godly” eusebos – Piously: … signifies a devout, pious manner of living. This is promoted by an attitude of piety toward God that seeks to please Him. It embraces that fear and reverence of God that must characterize both our attitudes and conduct. (Note: Romans 1:18ff and compare Hebrews 11:7; 2 Timothy 3:12)

Grace teaches us how to live “in this present world”! Grace teaches us to … Live: Soberly Righteously Godly Deny: Ungodliness Worldly lusts Grace teaches us how to live “in this present world”!
