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.
Revelation will not tell you 12 steps on how to have a better marriage or five ways you can learn to love yourself. This book is profoundly God-centered and exults God from start to finish. These particular verses (Rev 1:1-8)) remind us what he has done for us and that he will return in judgment on the earth.
