Ephesians 4 — Context

20

But you did not learn Christ in this way,

21

if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus,

22

that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,

23

and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

24

and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.

25

Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR, for we are members of one another.

26

BE ANGRY, AND yet DO NOT SIN; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
