Notice that Paul said the believers are to “walk in wisdom.” First, let’s focus on the verb “Walk.” We all walk in a certain way—we all present ourselves in a specific way. We value certain things, and we move our feet toward those things, and we talk about those things. There are numerous examples we could use to show what contradictory behavior might look like for the Christian. For instance, it certainly doesn’t make sense for us to call ourselves Christians if we live with our lover, not being married to that person. That’s will cause a non-believer to scratch their heads. We probably shouldn’t be adamant gambler, walking in the casinos and doing this and that, and then going around and telling are non-Christian neighbors about our gambling exploits. That won’t make a whole lot of sense to our unbelieving friends, will it? “So you’re a Christian, you say, and you like to gamble?” That could be something they ask. And then, after we’re gone, they might look at their spouse and say, “Well, he goes gambling every week, so why don’t we? There must not be anything wrong with it.”
