Ephesians 3:1-13 "An Illustration Of Christian Ministry " Rev. Keith Reid
This week, we resume our series in Ephesians with a look at Ephesians 3:1-13. In this passage, Paul is mostly talking about himself, his God-appointed ministry to the Gentiles, and the revelation given to the apostles and prophets. So, at first glance, it seems like there’s not much here for Christians today to apply to our daily lives However, if we look closer, if we truly think about how this passage might be applicable to OUR lives, we see that Paul, in this passage, serves as an excellent illustration of Christian ministry for us. He shows us that our ministry should be defined by grace, he shows us that we should be bold in ministry, and he shows us that our ministry will be hard. So, let’s look at the passage together and then think about how Paul illustrates these truths for us.
