Title: The Cosmic Role of the Church
Text: Ephesians 3
The church exists to display the manifold wisdom of God through the revelation of the Gospel
and the power of reconciliation, strengthened by the love of God
The church is shaped by the Word of God (v. 1-6)
● God’s revelation stands as the foundation
● Church’s reconciliation stands as the witness
The church is sharing in the Work of God (v. 7-13)
● We are active stewards of God’s grace
● We are active participants in displaying the Gospel
The church is strengthened by the power of God (v. 14-21)
● Access to God involves confidence and humility
● God’s love enables stability and depth in relationships
● Comprehending the extent of God’s love builds unity, godliness, and Christlikeness
