Walk Tutorial – Part 3 Archived – February 21, 2021 View This Weeks Note View All Past Notes View This Note w/ Blanks Don’t Trip: A C.R.I.P. Walk Tutorial – Part 3 February 21, 2021 Review Last week we continued our series on Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. We will continue with second half of Ephesians today, in a series titled: Don’t Trip: A C.R.I.P. Walk Tutorial. For our purposes C.R.I.P. stands for Christ Revealed In Prayer This lesson is about how drawing close to Jesus affects our walk. In Ephesians and much of the rest of the Bible, walking is a metaphor for life. Your walk refers to how you live. The first three chapters focus of Ephesians focus on what we believe, but the second three chapters focus on how we behave. Key Principle from Last Week: We choose how we identify and how we behave. God holds us accountable for how we identify and how we behave—not how we feel on the inside. Ephesians 4:25-32 Ephesians 5:1-5 In Sum, To C.R.I.P. Walk is to follow the principles of the Ten Commandments: Love Principle 10 Commandments Ephesians Love God 1. You shall have no other Gods but me. Ephesians 4:30 Ephesians 5:5 2. You shall not make for yourself any idol, nor bow down to it or worship it. Ephesians 4:30 Ephesians 5:5 3. You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God. Ephesians 4:29 Ephesians 5:4 4. You shall remember and keep the Sabbath day holy. Ephesians 2:6 Love Your Neighbor 5. Respect your father and mother. Ephesians 6:1-3 6. You must not commit murder. Ephesians 4:26 Ephesians 4:31 7. You must not commit adultery. Ephesians 5:3 Ephesians 5:5 8. You must not steal. Ephesians 4:28 9. You must not give false evidence against your neighbor. Ephesians 4:25 10. You must not be envious of your neighbor’s goods. You shall not be envious of his house nor his wife, nor anything that belongs to your neighbor. Ephesians 5:3 Ephesians 5:5 I Corinthians 6:9-11 “The apostle Paul, in writing here about the ‘unrighteous,’ is addressing a body of believers living in a city known for its gross sexual immorality. He lists a catalog of sins characterizing sexual impurity and says that those who commit them will be disinherited from the Kingdom. Does this mean that people who engage in sexual sin will lose their salvation? No, Rather, what the Word of God is saying is that sex sins obliterate the confidence, authority and power and blessings of the Kingdom. . . . Sex sins tend to dull our souls to the God-given joy of our salvation, robbing us of the strength that joy is designed to sustain” (Jack Hayford, Fatal Attractions: Why Sex Sins Are Worse Than Others, Regal:2004, p.61) Psalm 51:12 Ephesians 5:6-14 Identification is everything. Act like children of God. God uses us as flashlights. Ephesians 5:15-20 Examine your behavior. Take advantage of the opportunity to act morally. Stay under the influence of the Holy Spirit God breathes into us like wind instruments to create poetic expressions of praise, worship, and thanksgiving. © Joshua D.
