Ephesians 5:3 in Context — Ephesians 5

1 Portanto, sede imitadores de Deus, como filhos amados;

2 e andai em amor, como também Cristo nos amou, e se entregou por nós como oferta e sacrifício de cheiro suave a Deus.

3 Mas o pecado sexual, e toda impureza ou cobiça, nem mesmo se nomeie entre vós, como convém a santos;

4 nem imoralidades, nem palavras tolas, nem escárnios, que não convêm; em vez disso, atos de gratidão.

5 Pois sabeis disto, que nenhum pecador no sexo, ou impuro, ou ganancioso, que é idólatra, tem herança no reino de Cristo e de Deus.
