1 Since you are God's dear children, you must try to be like him.
2 Your life must be controlled by love, just as Christ loved us and gave his life for us as a sweet-smelling offering and sacrifice that pleases God.
3 Since you are God's people, it is not right that any matters of sexual immorality or indecency or greed should even be mentioned among you.
4 Nor is it fitting for you to use language which is obscene, profane, or vulgar. Rather you should give thanks to God.
