Paul challenged the Christians of his day to watch their walk in God. A Christian’s walk should match their words. Paul beseeched (implored, begged) them to walk worthy of their calling. This was very serious to Paul. Part of our evangelism is to walk out the gospel (good news) wherever we go, so that people could see Jesus in and through us. He went on to say: with all lowliness and gentleness….. We see so many Christians walking with hostility and offense against each other. Too many have no patience or longsuffering. These are works of the flesh. If we are not walking in love, the only other option is to walk in the flesh. That is where one will see hate, offense, bitterness, pride, arrogance, vengeance etc. God’s word clearly teaches us to walk in love. Always remember: God is love!
Ephesians 4:1 – I, therefore, the prisoner [a]of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,
