Ephesians

Sixth Day: Review Ephesians 4, concentrating on verses 5-6.

1. Ephesians 4:5 speaks of “one baptism.” What do you learn about baptism from the following verses?

Matthew 28:18-20

Romans 6:3-4

1 Corinthians 12:13

2. What does Ephesians 4:6 say regarding God?

3. What do you learn of the God the Father from 1 John 4:14?

4. a. The unity or oneness of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit is beyond our comprehension. What does Mark 12:29 say regarding God?

b. What does Jesus pray in John 17:22-23?

c. What does Galatians 3:26-28 say regarding our unity in Christ?

5. Personal: As believers, we are to “keep” Christian unity (see Ephesians 4:3), not “make” Christian unity. We are a diverse group made up of males, females, and various ages, races and cultures. We may look different on the outside; however, we are one in Christ. Our unity already exists, brought about by the Holy Spirit. We maintain that unity by practicing love, acceptance and forgiveness toward others in the body of Christ. Has this lesson helped you to know what groups are truly Christian? Has this changed your attitude toward other believers who may be different in some external ways? If so, how?
