But what about \u201cliving with dignity\u201d? Doesn\u2019t everything begin with what we do and leave undone today? Living with dignity is no arbitrary topic. Paul has already spoken of it. This post is about such a text. [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”147194″]Paul writes:<\/p>\n

\u201cI now appeal to you \u2013 I, the bound one in the Lord \u2013 to walk worthy of the calling to which you were called.\u201d<\/em>
\nEph 4:1<\/p>\n

\u201cWalking worthy\u201d is the apostle\u2019s concern here for the readers of the letter. This \u201cwalking\u201d is daily conduct, everyday life. He mentions the point of reference for it right away: one should walk worthy of one\u2019s calling. Paul puts it like this: \u201cto walk worthy of the calling to which you were called.\u201d So this walk is something like the expression of that calling. It still does not explain what \u201cworthy\u201d means, but it at least gives a context for it.<\/p>\n

The first three chapters of Ephesians deal with doctrine. The last three chapters, at whose beginning we stand here, speak of the conduct of life that is based on that doctrine. These first verses of the fourth chapter are something like an introduction to the second part of the letter. With them Paul sets the tone and clarifies what he now intends. [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”496094″]The calling [\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”199665″]Paul had already spoken of the calling earlier.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo that you may know what the expectation of His calling is.\u201d<\/em>
\nEph 1:18<\/p>\n

A few verses further on in the fourth chapter he mentions it again:<\/p>\n

\u201cJust as you were also called to one expectation of your calling.\u201d<\/em>
\nEph 4:4<\/p>\n

These are no coincidences. In this way the apostle describes a theme that runs through his entire letter. It is certainly not the only aspect that is repeated, but the repetition is meant to draw attention. The first quotation comes from the first chapter, from a prayer for the believers that Paul wrote down. They were to know and recognise something; he prays for this. He explains it. It concerns an expectation, and indeed \u201cone\u201d expectation, which applies equally to believers from the Jews and from the non-Jews. There are no more distinctions. This has already been discussed at length in this series on Ephesians.<\/p>\n

This one calling is so special that it is now a matter of outlining its effect on everyday life. This does not mean our everyday life so much as, primarily, the everyday life of the original recipients. They still knew the distinctions that Paul abolished here for the first time. These changes have long been familiar to us. In that time, however, the changes were stunningly new. Where today we might say with a shrug: \u201cWe have known that for a long time\u201d, one could not claim that back then. [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”673458″]Walking worthy [\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”211959″]What is \u201cworthy\u201d concerns values. They can only be recognised as interpretation. In other words: the self-evidence of values holds only within a particular culture. When they are the values of our family, society or faith community, we perhaps hardly think about them. We can often bridge even differences between these with ease if there is enough overlap. But if one stands outside these groups, the self-evidence is not a given. One probably knows other values.<\/p>\n

What is \u201cworthy\u201d, then, requires a framework. Values gain meaning within that framework. For Paul, this seems to be the framework of the first three chapters. He builds on that here. It is the calling to which he refers, and which he explained earlier.<\/p>\n

The word is used more frequently. We read it, for example, here:<\/p>\n

\u201cI commend to you Phoebe, our sister, who is also a servant of the called-out community in Cenchreae, that you receive her in the Lord, worthy of the saints, and assist her in whatever matter she should have need of you.\u201d<\/em>
\nRom 16:1-2<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly walk as citizens, worthy of the Gospel of the Christ.\u201d<\/em>
\nPhil 1:27<\/p>\n

\u201cTo walk worthy of the Lord and to please Him in every way \u2013 as those who bear fruit in every good work.\u201d<\/em>
\nCol 1:10<\/p>\n

\u201cWe \u2026 testified how you might walk worthy of God.\u201d<\/em>
\n2 Thess 2:12<\/p>\n

John also uses the term:<\/p>\n

\u201cYou will do excellently to send them on their way, as is worthy of God.\u201d<\/em>
\n3 John 1:6<\/p>\n

The term \u201cworthy\u201d is linked here with God, the Lord and the Gospel. It concerns an attitude of faith that is characterised by further concepts such as helpfulness. If something is to be worthy of the Lord or of God, the attitude of faith reflects this notion. Example: whoever has experienced grace, for instance, therefore speaks of grace and shows grace. We read that in the same chapter:<\/p>\n

\u201cShow grace to one another, as God also shows grace to you in Christ!\u201d<\/em>
\nEph 4:32<\/p>\n

The term \u201cworthy\u201d is also used in connection with \u201chonour\u201d. Western societies are less shaped by \u201chonour\u201d than many an Eastern culture. The Bible, however, originates from an Eastern culture, and we should pay attention to how the words are used. Elsewhere, Paul mentions, for example:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe elders who have led excellently are to be considered worthy of double honour.\u201d<\/em>
\n1 Tim 5:17<\/p>\n

Similarly, one could hear the word \u201chonour\u201d quietly in the background when Paul writes:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat our God may deem you worthy of the calling.\u201d<\/em>
\n2 Thess 1:11<\/p>\n

\u201cWorthy\u201d is the self-evidence of an attitude in a community that regards honourable conduct as \u201cworthy\u201d. Of course, one can grasp this as a concern of Paul, who stands within a particular culture. Besides, we can ask whether those concerns could also be ours. That would then be the adaptation to today\u2019s time. If we want to get to the bottom of such things, the further course of these chapters is about many individual aspects.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>
