Words matter. The devil uses words to beguile and deceive. In truth and right doctrine is where unity is kept. We need to be in the word of God, renewing our minds so that we use our liberty in Christ to serve the Lord in whatsoever we do.

It is only in God's Word that we find wisdom, as God's Word is where the Spirit teaches us. God's Word works effectually in those who believe it. As we grow in knowledge and spiritual understanding, we are to teach and admonish one another in the body of Christ according to God's abundant grace.

Now that we have learned that the believer's life is hid with Christ in God, Paul exhorts us to do service and behave in a manner becoming of a saint.
