Talk about life and faith with nurses
Paul shows in Ephesians 4:20–24 that life and faith are two parts of life that are linked and that every Christian must follow. The Bible says, “But have you not learned Christ, if you have heard him as the truth is in Jesus, that you put off the old man, which grows corrupt according to deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind?” The text contrasts the sinful life of non-believers with the life of a Christian, making it clear that Christians are not meant to live a life of sin. Christians are non-believers before they know Christ, so there is a big difference between the past and the present, and it should show in the present life as it did in Christ, which is done by faith (Konig, Langlands, and Uden, 2020).

Paul says in Romans 1:16–17 that a Christian must have faith: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God to save everyone who believes, first for the Jew and then for the Greek.” Paul stresses here that a Christian’s only way to receive God’s salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ. This means that a Christian can’t have God’s justice any other way than through faith (Konig, Langlands, and Uden, 2020). Paul’s examples in this passage show that a Christian’s life should be based on the message of Christ, which can only be done through faith.
