Paul is telling us to walk and live in a way that is worthy of our calling. He is asking us if our walk and daily lives, match up with our talk – the person that we say we are. When we are a community walking alongside one-another in Christ, we are effectively building up the body of Christ.
Learn
Paul mentions that Jesus gave us the apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers to build up the body of Christ. Each one of us has a spiritual gift, and it could be one the those listed above. These gifts, when working together, create a mature and full body of Christ that is able to stand up to the lies of this world with confidence.
Apply
Meditate for a minute or two on the spiritual gift(s) God has given you. Think of how you have been using it to build the body of Christ or how you can use it better.
Scripture
About this Plan
There is no greater joy in life than one with Jesus first. The book of Ephesians teaches us that the gospel unites and motivates us to live for Christ. Through Christ's sacrifice, we receive God's love, forgiveness, and deliverance. This new identity in Christ calls us to imitate Him in all aspects of our lives, including our relationships and our battle against the darkness in the world.
