light fruit…
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.

one body
So remember that once you were Gentiles by physical descent, who were called “uncircumcised” by Jews who are physically circumcised. At that time you were without Christ. You were aliens rather than citizens of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of God’s promise. In this world you had no hope and no God. But now, thanks toContinue reading “one body”
