Matt's Notes Week Seven: Ephesians 4:1-16

In this week's scripture, Paul makes a pivotal transition in his letter to the Ephesians. The first three chapters represented the theological backdrop against which the rest of the letter would fall. Paul used that first part of the letter to carefully explain the foundation of the faith. Now, he turns to the process of explaining the implications of that faith on the lives of believers. Believers are told they have a responsibility to grow in the faith, study the word, pray, and rely on one another. We are responsible for strengthening the Body of Christ, and to guard against deceitful teaching.

You can download a copy of my lesson notes (such as you can make heads or tails of them) by clicking here. I'm in the process right now of posting all my lesson notes for the first ten weeks of the Ephesians study. These notes were not created with the purpose in mind that anyone but me would eventually read them, so they might be a bit confusing. Starting with the November 2 lesson, I will work to make my notes more universal in style.
