"Sit,
Walk, Stand" - This is a useful summary of the message of Ephesians:
"And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus" (2:6); "I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord,
beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called"
(4:1); "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil" (6:11).
"Sit, Walk, Stand" - We
also find these words in the first Psalm: "Blessed is the man that
walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of
sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful" (v. 1). Concerning
those who persist in walking in the counsel of the ungodly, standing in
the way of sinners and sitting in the set of the scornful, the first
Psalm says this: "Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous" (v.5).
