Ephesians 5 is more family business meaning this is written specifically to those who are following Jesus, to Christians.
Being a Christian is brand new to some of us. What do we do? How do we act? What are the rules?
Here’s a general guideline:”1 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.”
Things NOT to do:
Be sexually immoral
Be greedy
Get drunk
Don’t do these.
Instead, Do these:
Be filled the Holy Spirit
Sing
Make music
Give thanks
Wives submit to your husbands like you do to Jesus
Husbands love your wife. be the Christlike man that a woman doesn’t have to fear submitting to. Love your wife like you love you. Love like Jesus did- Die to yourself and live for Jesus and your family. Love your wife. Love your wife like you love you. Love your wife. (I added one more “love your wife” than Paul did, sorry, now two more)
Being a Christian is the simple life. It is not the easy life but it is simple.
Live a life of love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us.
