17So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the
Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19Having lost all
sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.
20You, however, did not come to know Christ that way. 21Surely you heard of him and
were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus.
EPHESIANS4:17-32

22You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23to be made new in the attitude of your minds;
24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his
neighbor, for we are all members of one body. 26"In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, 27and do not
give the devil a foothold.
EPHESIANS4:17-32

28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful
with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need. 29Do not
let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building
others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed
for the day of redemption. 31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and
slander, along with every form of malice. 32Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God
forgave you.

But it was also the leading city in debauchery and sexual immorality. Some historians rank it as the most
lascivious city of Asia Minor.
It boasted of the great pagan temple of Artemis or Diana, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
