Ephesians 5:16
14 So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15 Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
