This lesson is part 8 in a verse by verse study through Ephesians titled: The Body of Christ. Find the outline here : graceambassador... Grace Ambassadors Bible Fellowship - July 25, 2017
When God revealed the body of Christ to me through faith in scripture in the end parts of Romans 8 it changed my life. Healed me from depression because of my position and inheritance in Christ. This wisdom in the mystery will of God completed my message of the Gospel of Grace.
I pray to the Father for understanding of His Word, for understanding of the mystery of Christ. He is opening my eyes and understanding through you Justin, thank you for helping me to understand the Body of Christ and where we stand positionally. I've never thought about the head being in heaven while the body remains here on earth. Thanks again for sharing your lessons, you are definitely edifying the Body of Christ and glorifying God.
The ending quotes from the commentary and the letter that Gabuline wrote 3 years before he died starting at 1:24:08 and Justin's comments after are key. Great ending for the conclusion of chapter 1 of Ephesians. Awesome sermon! Thoroughly looking forward to the rest of the series on Ephesians.
Thank you for your diligence in the Word, leading us through the wonderful mystery!!! I watch the teaching on tablet, listen on my phone when hiking or nsomnia and watch on the tv through RU-vid. This one really made me cry!! Because everyday, several times a day I ask the Lord, now will you take us home now??? And when it does not happen I pray for the urgency to give a Bible with the tracts from your web site (thank you so much for those). Love from a body part? ❤
The gifts were given in the beginning of the body of Christ to establish the church, until the word of God was finished. Grace & peace to you sister Debbie. 1 COR 13:8-13, Eph 4:13, 2 TIM 4:17. When the "great commission" resumes during Daniel's 70th week, it's believers will have sign gifts accompanying them. Mark 16:17-18 *Whoops, there was a major typo on my part
