The Apostle Paul writes to the church in Ephesus, instructing husbands to love their wives and wives to respect their husbands. He addresses fathers regarding their responsibilities and encourages the entire church family to build one another up.

However, Paul doesn’t rush to what a Christian does or how they live within a church family until he spends considerable time helping them understand who they are as a new creation in light of what Christ has accomplished on their behalf.

Because of the gospel, we receive a new identity and the Holy Spirit empowers us to live as Paul describes. He does not give these commands without first providing the motivation for them, knowing that attempting to obey apart from the freedom and fuel of the gospel leads only to pride or despair.
