Ephesians 4:1-3
Guest Preacher James Risner
BIG IDEA: Walk worthy of the calling to reflect the unified glory of our triune God by making loving allowances for each other's faults.
OUTLINE:
1. Therefore…
– Because you have been blessed in Christ with every spiritual blessing (ch1)
– Because you have been saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, for the glory of God alone (ch 2)
– Because God has reconciled us to God and each other by the blood of Christ (ch 3)
– Because this good news has been graciously given to us, strengthening us with supernatural power to live a life that reflects the unified glory of our Triune God (ch 3)
2. The worthy life embodies four specific virtues: humility, gentleness, patience, and love. Love is the capstone virtue that grounds each of them and binds them together (1 Cor 13:13).
