Therefore, imitate God like dearly loved children. Live your life with love, following the example of Christ, who loved us and gave himself for us. He was a sacrificial offering that smelled sweet to God. Sexual immorality, and any kind of impurity or greed, shouldn’t even be mentioned among you, which is right for holy persons. Obscene language, silly talk, or vulgar jokes aren’t acceptable for believers. Instead, there should be thanksgiving. Because you know for sure that persons who are sexually immoral, impure, or greedy—which happens when things become gods—those persons won’t inherit the kingdom of Christ and God. Nobody should deceive you with stupid ideas. God’s anger comes down on those who are disobedient because of this kind of thing. So you shouldn’t have anything to do with them. You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord, so live your life as children of light. Light produces fruit that consists of every sort of goodness, justice, and truth. (Ephesians 5:1-9, CEB)
It seems there is a lot of talk in the Bible about sexual immorality, and impure obscene things. And probably for good reasons. We should focus on what God called us to be and do, which is loving people, and loving God. When we focus on impure, obscene, immoral things we can not see the other and their needs.
We should imitate God and be like dearly beloved children who seek to be like the one who loves them.
So love others.
Loving People. Loving God.
