Pastor Richard "Buddy" Wimberly "Followers of God" Ephesians 5:1-7

• The world knows we are God's disciple because we have one for another.
• Vain words are empty words; they have no meaning.
• When we get born again, we are born into the family of Christ by His blood.
• Getting saved is the beginning of the race, not the end. 
• It's the person which is forgiven, not the sin.
• We need Christ, not because of the actions, but because of the person we are.
• We sin because we are a sinner. We were conceived in sin. 
• People won't get along because they are very self-centered.
• The unity of the Body of Christ doesn't just happen; we have to make the choice. 
• If you're going to love, you have to choose to love.
• True religion is about being followers of God. The greatest honor of true religion is that we imitate God.
• Jesus said if any man follow after Him, let him deny himself.
• All that God does for us is for our good.
• Our goal should be that we become more like Christ.
