Chapter 4 I therefore, the prisoner of the
Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of

00:08.300 --> 00:13.460
the vocation wherewith ye are called,
with all lowliness and meekness,

00:13.700 --> 00:18.840
with long-suffering, forbearing one
another in love, endeavouring to keep the

00:18.840 --> 00:21.480
unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

00:22.260 --> 00:28.640
There is one body and one spirit,
even as ye are called in one hope of your

00:28.640 --> 00:36.260
calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
one God and Father of all, who is above

00:36.260 --> 00:39.100
all, and through all, and in you all.

00:39.880 --> 00:44.340
But unto every one of us is given grace
according to the measure of the gift of

00:44.340 --> 00:44.740
Christ.

00:45.540 --> 00:52.560
Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on
high, he led captivity captive,

00:52.860 --> 00:54.720
and gave gifts unto men.

00:54.720 --> 01:01.580
Now that he ascended, what is it but that
he also descended first into the lower

01:01.580 --> 01:02.480
parts of the earth?

01:03.020 --> 01:08.060
He that descended is the same also that
ascended up far above all heavens,

01:08.200 --> 01:10.160
that he might fill all things.

01:11.040 --> 01:16.840
And he gave some apostles, and some
prophets, and some evangelists,

01:17.180 --> 01:19.600
and some pastors and teachers.

01:20.480 --> 01:24.820
For the perfecting of the saints,
for the work of the ministry, for the

01:24.820 --> 01:29.960
edifying of the body of Christ,
till we all come in the unity of the

01:29.960 --> 01:35.720
faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of
God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure

01:35.720 --> 01:42.040
of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
that we henceforth be no more children,

01:42.460 --> 01:47.800
tossed to and fro, and carried about with
every wind of doctrine by the slight of

01:47.800 --> 01:52.400
men, and cunning craftiness whereby they
lie in wait to deceive.

01:53.160 --> 01:58.060
But speaking the truth in love,
may grow up into him in all things,

01:58.460 --> 02:04.540
which is the head, even Christ,
from whom the whole body, fitly joined

02:04.540 --> 02:09.220
together, and compacted by that which
every joint supplieth, according to the

02:09.220 --> 02:15.160
effectual working in the measure of every
part, maketh increase of the body unto the

02:15.160 --> 02:17.140
edifying of itself in love.

02:18.780 --> 02:24.380
This I say therefore, and testify in the
Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other

02:24.380 --> 02:29.940
Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their
mind, having the understanding darkened,

02:30.200 --> 02:35.020
being alienated from the life of God
through the ignorance that is in them,

02:35.280 --> 02:40.480
because of the blindness of their heart,
who being past feeling, have given

02:40.480 --> 02:45.960
themselves over unto lasciviousness,
to work all uncleanness with greediness.

02:46.740 --> 02:51.080
But ye have not so learned Christ,
if so be that ye have heard him,

02:51.360 --> 02:54.580
and have been taught by him, as the truth
is in Jesus.

02:55.920 --> 03:00.820
That ye put off concerning the former
conversation, the old man, which is

03:00.820 --> 03:06.060
corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,
and be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

03:06.060 --> 03:11.080
and that ye put on the new man,
which after God is created in

03:11.080 --> 03:13.180
righteousness and true holiness.

03:14.920 --> 03:21.300
Wherefore putting away lying, speak every
man truth with his neighbor, for we are

03:21.300 --> 03:22.860
members one of another.

03:23.660 --> 03:29.880
Be ye angry, and sin not, let not the sun
go down upon your wrath, neither give

03:29.880 --> 03:30.900
place to the devil.

03:30.900 --> 03:36.740
Let him that stole steal no more,
but rather let him labor, working with his

03:36.740 --> 03:40.900
hands the thing which is good,
that he may have to give to him that

03:40.900 --> 03:41.380
needeth.

03:42.100 --> 03:47.220
Let no corrupt communication proceed out
of your mouth, but that which is good to

03:47.220 --> 03:51.700
the use of edifying, that it may minister
grace unto the hearers.

03:52.240 --> 03:57.100
And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God,
whereby ye are sealed unto the day of

03:57.100 --> 03:57.520
redemption.

03:57.520 --> 04:03.760
Let all bitterness, and wrath,
and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking

04:03.760 --> 04:06.320
be put away from you with all malice.

04:07.160 --> 04:12.260
And be ye kind one to another,
tenderhearted, forgiving one another,

04:12.580 --> 04:15.900
even as God for Christ's sake hath
forgiven you.
