A 15 week study of Paul's letter to the Ephesians
Ephesians
Blessed Beyond Belief to Building up the Body
Overview
The Unity of All Believers in Christ.
In Ephesians, Paul writes to a mainly Gentile audience to emphasize the unity of the Church created in Christ and to encourage believers to maintain that unity along with a Christ-like walk.
In the first half of the book (1:1-3:21) Paul emphasizes first the individual then corporate positional truths (doctrine) of unity with Christ and mutual unity in Christ. The second half of the book (4:1-6:24) he provides practical ways to fulfill God’s purpose for individuals and the church. He calls us to walk uprightly and stand firm.
