“But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.”

CONTEXT SUMMARY:
Ephesians 5:3
Paul directly mentions sexual immorality. This general term can include any sexual misconduct, including inappropriate communication and pornography. Generally, though, as used here, it means physical sexual behaviors, including premarital sex, adultery, and same-sex acts.

CONTEXT SUMMARY:
Ephesians 5:4 “Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place”

Paul prohibits “filthiness.” The Greek term is aischrotēs, most literally meaning “obscenity.”

This is mentioned immediately following a discussion of sexual immorality which may apply specifically to dirty jokes that include sexual references.

Paul mentions to avoid “crude joking.” The Greek eutrapelia referring to vulgar, lewd, crass, or foul-mouthed humor.

Neither verse applies to my statement

If accusing someone of being a “little queer pedophile” isn’t “vulgar, lewd, crass, or foul-mouthed” what is it mommy?

And you made this accusation without any proof whatsoever, breaking the 9th. Commandment: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. ~ Exodus 20:16.

The next time you copy and paste Scripture, you might try reading it.

Some “REVEREND” you are.
