In Ephesians 5:11, Paul calls us to “expose” the “deeds of darkness.” The word Paul uses for “exposing” the darkness does not mean “point a finger and judge.” It means that we persuade people that the gospel is true because our lives are a compelling testimony to the God who has come for sinners. Paul continues his thought in verse 15, saying, “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”
