The so-called “circular letter” that stresses the unity of the body of Christ is

“Mission is the meaning of the church “Mission is the meaning of the church. Indeed, the church is mission, and where there is no mission there is no church. God has called the church out from the world to send her back into the world with a message and a mission.” --Dale Moody, The Word of Truth

Ephesians 3:20-21 Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.

“infinitely more” “Infinitely” = huperpanta = “beyond and above all” “More” = huperekperissou huper=”above” ek=”out of, beyond” perissou—“around”

Ephesians 3:20-21 Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.

Ephesians 4:1-3 Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.

Ephesians 3:20-21 Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
