The change that God intends to bring into our lives isn’t superficial. The power of the triune God is forming us into the image of Christ. In this message from Ephesians 5, Pastor Philip Miller walks us through God’s three-dimensional transformation: upward, outward, and inward. The deep, comprehensive change we need is beyond our doing.
"Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her" (Proverbs 31: 25-28).
There is diversity in unity. While that statement sounds oxymoronic, it is very true of Christ’s body, the church. God has given every Christian a gift that, when used rightly, contributes to the oneness of the body and to His glory. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he describes the grace gifts God gives to His people and their ultimate purpose.
