Ephesians 5:5-7

1. What about today’s sermon bothered or encouraged you?
2. Why are the warnings in Scripture loving and kind?
3. Discuss how you can tangibly exhibit Christlike love towards those enslaved to sin. How can we, practically, be a light to those hostile towards the truth proclaimed in Ephesians 5:5-7? 
4. Who is an individual from MBC who exemplifies how to interact with unbelievers and demonstrates Christlike love towards them?
5. Why are people fiercely opposed to Ephesians 5:5-7?
6. Why do some local churches/denominations support, affirm, and encourage people to continue in sin even though it is leading them to eternal damnation?
7. What are some ways that those enslaved to sin rebel against the present rule of God?
8. We were once sons of disobedience living in rebellion against God, but by the grace of God, we are now sons of God who enjoy fellowship with God! When did that transition occur in your life, and how has it affected your behavior?
9. When you ponder God’s love, what comes to mind?
10. The love of God occasionally/often escapes our thinking. What has helped you keep the love of God at the forefront of your mind? Be specific
11. Pray for MBC that we would be wise in our interactions with the unsaved and be used by God to point/lead them to Christ
