Message: “Getting It All Together (Ephesians 1:3-14)” from Dr. Tom Riley

A message from the series "Sunday Service." In our lesson today I want to bring some encouragement from the story of the Apostle Paul to his friends at Ephesus. As Brother Keith “Called Out the Called” two weeks ago (using the calling of Moses as his text), I want to piggy-back on that to emphasize that we are ALL called (and GIFTED) to do something! We are all ministers together in some capacity. Each one of us has some gift that Christ has given us for the benefit of each other! Together! Paul emphasizes that together the believers all became one in Christ, and as the body of Christ they were living in the story of God.

In All Things, Serve the Lord Jesus- Colossians 3:18-4:1

In All Things, Serve the Lord Jesus- Colossians 3:18-4:1

In Colossians 3:18-4:1 the Apostle Paul made his teaching very practical. He applied the Christian faith to the most personal of relationships. In Paul´s day, relationships were often one-sided, and those of less power were often abused and taken for granted, but the Christian ethic was different. Husbands had responsibility just like wives. Parents had responsibilities just like children. Masters had responsibilities just like servants or slaves. This was a totally new way of living that the Christians had to get used to as they began to live out their faith in their most personal of relationships.
