1 1 Is Enough! Ephesians 4:1-4

2 1 Introduction 1 is not enough in many things of life!
1 parent is not enough! – Eph. 6:2 Father and Mother are needed! – Gen. 1:26-28 Male + Female = Offspring “…after his kind…” Gen. 1:11,12, 21, 24, 25 The natural law of Procreation 1 vehicle may not be enough! Some need 2 or more! 1 shoe is not enough! Need 2 – one for each foot! 1 foot, leg, eye, ear, arm, hand is not enough! Need both! – 1 Cor. 12:14-26 But, God says that 1 is enough in some cases!

3 Ephesians 4:1-6 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

4 Conclusion! 1 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all - Eph. 4:4-6 …is Enough!

5 Sacrifice for sin is Enough!
1 Sacrifice for sin is Enough! “…Christ was once offered…” Heb. 9:23-28 Sacrifices of the law not sufficient Heb. 10:1-14; 7:22-28; 9:1-12; 1 Pet. 3:18 There is no need for observance of the Law of Moses!

6 Deliverance of the Faith Enough!
1 Deliverance of the Faith Enough! “the faith which was once delivered…” Jude 3 Once = “hapax” Gk. “one (or a single) time (numerically or conclusively):--once.” - Strong 2 Tim. 3:14-17; 2 Pet. 1:3 Jn. 14:26; 15:26; 16:7, 13 The ONE “once delivered” faith of Christ is sufficient! NO OTHER “revelations” are needed!

7 1 Judgment Day is Enough! Jesus is the righteous judge!
2 Tim. 4:8 He will judge the world! Acts 17:30-31; Rom 14:10; 2 Cor. 5:10 Every eye will see Him! Rev. 1:7; Matt. 24:30; Acts 1:11 2 Thess. 1:6-11 All shall hear His voice! John 5:28-29 There is only ONE final judgment day!

8 Husband-Wife is Enough!
1 Husband-Wife is Enough! God ordained marriage from the beginning! Matt. 19:3-6; Gen. 2:24 Marriage is honorable! Heb 13:4 - (ASV) “Let marriage be had in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.” One of the qualifications of elders & deacons! 1 Tim. 3:2; 12; Tit. 1:6 All Marriages are NOT honorable! Society has dishonored & disgraced this institution! 1 Cor. 7:1-2; Mk. 6:14-29 Only marriages meeting God’s approval are honorable!

9 1 Corinthians 7:2 Applied to Mark 6:17-18
“every man have his OWN wife” “every woman have her OWN husband” Philip T H I S God’s law would NOT join them! Matt. 19:9 - Mark 6:18 Herodias Not This Herod “For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her. For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife” (Mark 6:17, 18).

10 Who Does God Permit To Marry?
Only a MAN and a WOMAN! Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:3-6 Those who have never married! Matt. 19:4-5; Heb 13:4; 1 Cor. 7:9, 28 One whose mate has died! Rom. 7:3 One who put away their mate for fornication! Matt 19:9 Those reconciling a lawful marriage! 1 Cor. 7:11 No Other Marriages Honor God’s Marriage Law!
