Walk Worthily Ephesians 4:1-3

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily of God, Who Called Us. 1.God called us by the gospel (1 Thess. 2:10-12; 2 Thess. 2:13, 14; cf. Eph. 3:21) Glorify Him. 2. We are God's children we ought to be imitators of God (Eph. 5:1, 2). 3. To walk worthily of God we must walk: (1 Thess. 2:10-12) Holily- piously, in a holy way: Unblameably- blamelessly, so that there is no cause for censure: Unblameably- blamelessly, so that there is no cause for censure: Justly- agreeably to right: (Thayer)

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily of Christ Who Died For Us. (Col. 1:10). 1. We belong to Christ by reason of purchase (1 Cor. 6:20). 2. We wear the name of Christ (Acts 11:26; 1 Pet. 4:11-16). 3. How may I walk worthily of Christ? a.Be filled with knowledge of his will in all wisdom & spiritual understanding (Col. 1:9). b. Increasing in the knowledge of God (Col. 1:10). c.Bearing fruit in every good work (Col. 1:10)

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily Of The Gospel Of Christ (Phil. 1:27). 1. The gospel is the high and exalted plan of human redemption conceived in the mind of God. Eph. 1:9; 1 Cor. 15:1-4; Rom. 1:16, Stand fast in the faith of the gospel in oneness of spirit, one soul, striving for the faith of the gospel. cf. Heb. 3: Let your manner of living be worthy of, suitable to, the glorious gospel which you espouse, not afraid and willing to suffer for the gospel. 1 Pet. 4:12ff; Rev. 2:10

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily of the “Calling” Wherewith You Were Called (Eph. 4:1-3). 1.This “calling” (invitation, to call aloud) takes in every thing pertaining to the life in Christ:. 2. How to walk worthily of the “calling.” a. In lowliness, humility of mind. Phil. 2:2-4 b. In meekness, as opposed to haughtiness. cf. Titus 3:2; cf. Prov. 8:13

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily of the “Calling” Wherewith You Were Called (Eph. 4:1-3). c. Longsuffering-- never permit trials or provocations to wear out our fidelity. Col. 1:10-11 d. Forbearing (equitable, fair, mild, gentle): one another in love-- Sustaining one another, helping to encourage each other under all trials of life. Phil. 4:5-7 e. Making an effort to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace – 2 Cor. 13:11; 1 Thess. 5:13; cf. Eph. 6:23; Phil. 1:2

Walk Worthily Walk Worthily Of The Saints (Rom. 16:1-2). 1. Christians should receive one another worthily, in a manner suitable to the character of one who is a Christian; Rom 16:1-2 “I commend unto you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church that is at Cenchreae: that ye receive her in the Lord, worthily of the saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever matter she may have need of you: for she herself also hath been a helper of many, and of mine own self.” 2. Saints ought all to live in such a manner that honor is brought to others who are saints. One, does not have the right to, live in such a way as to heap shame and reproach on fellow-saints.

Eph 4:1-3 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beseech you to walk worthily of the calling wherewith ye were called, with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; giving diligence to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”
