8 Walk Wisely! – 5:15-21 “Redeeming the time” - use time wisely!  5:16 Understand the will of the Lord!  5:17 Must study and make application! Not wise when drunk!  5:18 – A waste of time! To be filled with the spirit!  Produces melody in the heart – 5:19  Produces thanksgiving – 5:20  Produces submission one to another in Godly fear – 5:21
