God’s Building Project

Ephesians 1-4 

“And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit…His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the ruler and authorities in the heavenly realms.”

Ephesians 2:22; 3:10

The Church is more than a building on the corner where people gather once a week for an hour to sing and listen to good preaching. The Church is God’s global reconciliation-strategy to bring together his sons and daughters from every tribe, language, and nation into one family, one body, and one temple. 

In what ways are we experiencing the ‘building together’ of relationships with new immigrants, First Nations/Native Americans, Anglos, African Americans, Hispanics, and refugees into the Church?

This uniting in Christ is God’s global peace plan and purpose for every local expression of the Church. As we love one another and experience reconciliation, we express the manifold wisdom of God found in the gospel to the spiritual powers in the heavenly realms. This building project is worth it!

“Lord Jesus, use my life to unite your Church, for your glory.”
