The Summation of All Things in Christ

Studies in Ephesians with a Local Church Emphasis

Lesson 61 : Living According to our Call to Salvation (4:1)

The importance of belonging to a local church body of believers  –  This chapter linked to the previous chapters  –  Paul uses the exact same phrase two other places  –  ‘I beseach you’, a friendly yet firm appeal  –  Praise God for those who lovingly encourage us spiritually  –  Paul the prisoner  –  The Christian walk may cost  –  Do we look at our circumstances in the light of Christ?  –  The walk of our life  –  A challenge to us all  –  The two great commandments  –  Not a set of rules  –  Our divine call to salvation  –  This calling is to all believers  –  ‘Calling’ as defined by the Westminster Shorter Catechism  –  ‘monergistic’ vs ‘synergistic’
