Ephesians 4:1-3 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation wherewith you are called, with all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, forbearing one another in love; endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

I.Let’s Live Up to Our Calling (4:1) The power of the truth and gospel that we proclaim are denuded by our lives if we do not walk worthy of our calling. Nominal Christianity is not prepared to face the forces of satanic powers and principalities, nor the encroaching pagan culture around us. Our Christianity must be professed with the mouth, believed in the heart, and lived in our daily lives.

II.We Are to Love One Another (4:2)

Paul is especially concerned that our living as Christians will be manifested in this reconciled and unified family through love.

II.We Are to Love One Another (4:2) Absolute Necessities for Manifesting Genuine Christian Love: H UMILITY ~ If we’re going to manifest a world-changing love in our church, it has got to start with self-effacement, an attack on pride, the mortification of the flesh, and the cultivation of genuine, Christ-like humility.

II.We Are to Love One Another (4:2) Absolute Necessities for Manifesting Genuine Christian Love: G ENTLENESS ~ We can’t love one another like we ought to until we’re prepared to stop demanding our own way, or rights, and submit to what will be best for the whole family.

II.We Are to Love One Another (4:2) Absolute Necessities for Manifesting Genuine Christian Love: P ATIENCE ~ Until we’re ready to show some patience in our families and forbearance in our congregation, we will not show genuine love.

II.We Are to Love One Another (4:2) Absolute Necessities for Manifesting Genuine Christian Love: T OLERANCE ~ meaning mutual compliance and respect. You can’t live together without some sort of joint acceptance that makes space for one another, that’s willing to give and take, and not always ready to criticize every little thing.
