Ephesians 5:11
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them
.

The Apostle Paul is telling us to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness.

What does that mean? It means we can't just cozy up with the things that are not producing fruit for the kingdom of God.

We've got to be careful who we're partnering with, what we're participating in.

Because if we're not careful, we'll find ourselves in fellowship with the very things that are opposing the kingdom of God.

But here's the thing: we're not just supposed to avoid those things. We're supposed to expose them. The word "expose" in the Greek is "elegcho," which means to convict, reprove, or rebuke.

We're supposed to shine the light of God's Word on the things that are not pleasing to Him.

Now, I know that's not always easy. It's hard to confront the darkness, especially when it's hidden. But here's the thing: we're not just called to be nice people. We're called to be light-bearers, truth-tellers, and agents of transformation.

So, let's ask ourselves: what are we partnering with?

What are we participating in?

Are we exposing the works of darkness, or are we ignoring them?

It's time for us to take a stand. It's time for us to shine the light of God's Word on the things that are not pleasing to Him.

Let's expose the works of darkness, not being unequally yoked with unbelievers, and let's partner with the Holy Spirit to bring transformation to our world.
