Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
—Ephesians 5:21
Ephesians 5:21 is a verse from the New Testament of the Bible that reads, “submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.” This verse serves as a transition between the general instructions on Christian living and the specific guidelines for relationships within the household that follow in the subsequent verses.

The verse emphasizes the mutual submission among Christians, which is not about one person having power over another, but rather, each person considering the other’s needs and well-being as more important than their own. This mutual submission is done out of reverence for Christ, acknowledging His authority and following His example of humility and service.
In the broader context of Ephesians 5, Paul is instructing Christians to live wisely and be filled with the Spirit, which results in behaviors such as speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, giving thanks always, and submitting to one another in the fear of Christ. This approach contrasts with worldly wisdom, which often promotes self-interest over the interests of others.
