7 Therefore do not be ^apartakers with them.

Walk in Light

8 For you were once darkness, but now you are ^alight in the Lord. Walk as children of light

9 (for ^athe fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),

10 ^afinding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

11 And have ^ano fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather¹ expose them.

13 But ^aall things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
