The Language of Heaven (Ephesians 5:4) – Study 130
Your mouth is important to God. It will either be characterized by the culture or marked by the language of heaven. Whichever you choose, you will either promote God’s Kingdom or the Kingdom of the World.
In this study, we examine Ephesians 5:4 and Paul’s command for a Christian not to talk with foolishness or filthiness, but instead to have a mouth full of thanksgiving.

Set Free from Sexual Immorality (Ephesians 5:3) – Study 129
Is real freedom from sexual sin actually possible for a Christian? In a culture saturated with sensuality and sexual confusion, many believers wonder whether true purity is realistic or if constant struggle is simply inevitable.
In this Bible study from Ephesians 5:3, Nathan Johnson explains Paul’s powerful command that there must not even be a hint of sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among God’s people. Discover why the early church viewed holiness in this area as essential to Christian life and how the gospel provides real power to walk in freedom, integrity, and purity.
If you are seeking biblical clarity about sexuality and want to understand how Jesus Christ sets believers free to live holy lives in a sensually saturated culture, this study will help you see both the seriousness of the call and the hope of true transformation.

Not Even a Hint (Ephesians 5:3) – Study 128
What does it mean for a Christian to live a holy life? In Ephesians 5:3, the apostle Paul gives one of the most striking commands in the New Testament: there should not even be a hint of sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among believers.
In this Bible study, Nathan Johnson examines Paul’s powerful instruction and explains how the life of a Christian should be radically different from the culture around us.
As citizens of God’s Kingdom, our lives are meant to reflect the holiness, purity, and righteousness of our King.
In this message, discover why Paul calls believers to a life that stands in stark contrast to the world and how the gospel empowers us to pursue true holiness in everyday life. If you want to understand what biblical purity looks like and why God calls His people to such a high standard, this study of Ephesians 5:3 will help you grasp the beauty and seriousness of living with “not even a hint” of sin.

Published 7 Apr 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Hey, you are not to be known as a part of their club. And here's why. He says, for you were formerly darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. So therefore you are to walk as children of the light. So if he has transferred you, as Colossians says, from the kingdom of darkness and brought you in the kingdom of the dear son, then you and your life and your lips should be reflecting the reality of the kingdom in which he has purchased for you. Which is an amazing thought because what that tells us is that however your life has been up to this point, Even if it's been marked by the world, even if your language is of the world, your heart is of the world, your attitude is of the world, your lifestyle and behavior is of the world, it no longer has to be that way.
