Ephesians: All Things in Christ

Every part of the body needs to function properly for the body to be healthy and capable. Love loosens the joints in the body motivating us to take action and to serve the church.

Unity in Christ does not mean perfect agreement or the absence of differences; it means community in the midst of differences.

To comprehend the love of God we must first grapple with the love that moved God to come into the world to become a sin offering.

God is uniting all things in heaven and on earth through the church and making a new humanity composed of Jews and Gentiles united.

The solution to world peace is not found in altering man’s socio-economic conditions; the problem is man himself. Man’s hostility toward God is at the heart of the human condition.

The Bible paints a stark picture of man's bleak condition in sin. Against this backdrop, we recognize the awesome riches of God's love, mercy and kindness in the gospel.

God's purpose in our election is not that we may rest complacently in our sense of calling, but that we may boldly assert Christ's ownership claim over the whole earth.
