Ephesians 4:17-22 So what I mean and insist upon in the Lord's name is this: You must no longer live like the heathen, with their frivolity of mind and darkened understanding.

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ So what I mean and insist upon in the Lord's name is this: You must no longer live like the heathen, with their frivolity of mind and darkened understanding. ¹⁸ They are estranged from the life of God because of the ignorance that exists among them and their obstinacy of heart, ¹⁹ for they have become callous, and abandoned themselves to sensuality, greedily practicing every kind of vice. ²⁰ That is not the way you have been taught what Christ means, ²¹ at least if you have really become acquainted with him and been instructed in him, and in union with him have been taught the truth as it is found in Jesus. ²² You must lay aside with your former habits your old self which is going to ruin through its deceptive passions.
