Stay far away from evil

To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted. — Titus 1:15

Rust stains, grass stains, blood stains, chocolate stains — ARGH! Those stains are real nightmares in the laundry room. They don't just leave a stain on the surface of the fabric, but they also leave a residue that infiltrates the fibers of our clothes. Evil is that way. We must not kid ourselves. Evil corrupts and leaves a residue that corrupts everything it touches, including the hearts of otherwise decent people. That's why we are urged to stay far away from evil and avoid its very appearance. That's also why Jesus died: to not only overcome the Evil One, but to also clean away the stain and its residue.

Filling Our Minds with God’s Love

Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Seven fold blessing 

Ephesians 3:14-15
For this reason I kneel  before the Father,   from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.

Full

Acts 6:5
This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen,  a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit;  also Philip,  Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.

You can know the Spirit's Fullness

Ephesians 5:18
Do not get drunk on wine,  which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit,

His Astonishing Gift

Ephesians 4:30
And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,  with whom you were sealed  for the day of redemption.
