Walk in victory (6:10–24)
4:1 Just as no one can be saved apart from receiving Jesus, no one can measure up to the maturity of Jesus without the work of God in his/her life through the power of the Holy Spirit. 4:1 Our heavenly calling (salvation) is the basis for our earthly conduct (sanctification). 4:2-3 Five Characteristics of Your Walk: 1. Humility—This is a quality highly sought, but never claimed…once I claim it, I forfeit it. 2. Gentleness—Humility produces gentleness, which is power under control. 3. Patience—This trait means waiting for God to act when, where, and how He chooses. 4. Forbearing Love—This kind of love takes abuse from others while continuing to love them. 5. Unity—The ultimate outcome of humility, gentleness, patience, and forbearance is unity, which can only be created by the Holy Spirit.
