Eph 5: -

Christians don't live a different type of life to be saved, We live a different

type of life because we are saved!

 - Our goal, as Christians, is to become more

like God.

 - We should be imitating Gods' life.

 - Our standards aren't negotiable, God deals

in absolutes.

V 3 -

Coveting, ( sin). All sin leads to destruction.

 - Sinning people are not hated, their sins

are!

 - Biblical Conviction Vs Personal Compassion.

promote life.

Our God is

a personal God, who gives us stewardship and dominion.

Kingdom people, and will remain in the Kingdom.

Principles. - To people who don't understand our Kingdom Principles, our

actions may seem strange, and mystical.

Stewardship

- How we relate to everything to do with God.

Created and

Uncreated Life.

life is God, God always existed, there was nothing before God.

- Created

life is everything else, including you and I, God created us.

- The only

thing to ever worship is uncreated, (God).

Matt22;36 -

Love your Lord your God.

Everything created - God wants us to love it, nurture it, grow it. But Never to

worship it!

- God knows

that we were created to worship, It's in our hearts.

Luke 12;13

drawn to grow the Kingdom.

who we are worshipping and serving.
