Ephesians 2:11-22 Pastor Keone United by Christ Ephesians 2:11-22 Pastor Keone

Ephesians 2:11-12 11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "Uncircumcision " by the so-called "Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands-- 12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

Ephesians 2:11-12 11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "Uncircumcision " by the so-called "Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands-- 12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

Ephesians 2:13 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

Ephesians 2:13 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Peace with God Peace with other believers

14 For He Himself is our peace, Ephesians 2:14-16 14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, 15 by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, 16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.

Ephesians 2:17-18 17 AND HE CAME AND PREACHED PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY, AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR; 18 for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.

Ephesians 2:19-22 19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.

Implications of being united by Christ

Implications of being united by Christ All believers are Fellow citizens Members of God’s household Part of the same body, building, temple, dwelling

Implications of being united by Christ All believers are Fellow citizens Members of God’s household Part of the same body, building, temple, dwelling Does not mean that every single Christian thinks the same way.

Implications of being united by Christ All believers are Fellow citizens Members of God’s household Part of the same body, building, temple, dwelling Does not mean that every single Christian thinks the same way. Does mean that we have allow for differences in convictions.

Erik Thoennes, professor of theology at Biola University, Life’s Biggest Questions: What the Bible Says about the Things That Matter Most (Crossway, 2011): absolutes define the core beliefs of the Christian faith; convictions, while not core beliefs, may have significant impact on the health and effectiveness of the church; opinions are less-clear issues that generally are not worth dividing over; and questions are currently unsettled issues.

Al Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and professor of theology, (http://www.albertmohler.com/2004/05/20/a-call-for-theological-triage-and-christian-maturity-2/) first-order doctrines: a denial of which represents the eventual denial of Christianity itself second-order doctrines: upon which Bible- believing Christians may disagree, but they create significant boundaries between believers, whether as distinct congregations or denominations third-order doctrines: upon which Christians may disagree, but yet remain in close fellowship, even within local congregations

Implications of being united by Christ All believers are: fellow citizens, members of God’s household, and part of the same body, building, temple of the Lord, dwelling place of the Holy Spirit, therefore, what God has joined, let no man (or woman) separate.
