A SERMON OF D. MARTIN LVTHER, CONCERNING THE LEADING OF A GODLY LIFE.
Ephes. 5. Verse 1. BE ye therefore followers of God as dear children. 2. And walk in love, even as Christ hath loved us, and hath given him self for us, to be an offering & a sacrifice of a sweet smelling savour to God. 3. But fornication, & all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as it becometh Saints. 4. Neither filthiness, neither foolish talking, neither jesting, which are things not comely, but rather giving of thanks. 5. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, neither unclean person, nor covetous person, which is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ, and of God. 6. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for, for such things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7. Be not therefore companions with them. 8. For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light. 9. For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth.
