Be imitators of God, as beloved children, and live in love, as Christ loved us and handed himself over for us as if a sacrificial offering to God for a fragrant aroma. “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light. Immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be mentioned among you, as is fitting among holy ones, no obscenity or silly or suggestive talk, which is out of place, but instead, thanksgiving. Be sure of this no immoral or impure or greedy person has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Our Duty to Live in the Light! Let no one deceive you with empty arguments, for because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the disobedient “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.” So do not be associated with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light, for light produces every kind of goodness and righteousness and truth. Try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. Take no part in the fruitless works of darkness; but rather expose them, for it is shameful even to mention the things done by them in secret; But - everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that becomes visible, is light.! Therefore, it says: “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”
