Summary

I remember the first time I read Ephesians, well maybe the first time, probably not, but the first time that I can remember reading Ephesians chapter 2 verses 8 and 9 where it says that even faith is a gift of God, I can't describe how some people kind of get irritated thinking, well no, I can believe, I want to believe on my own. And we know that Christ is wisdom Christ is wisdom from above and do those do those modifiers work is Christ pure yes is he peaceable gentle open to reason which means easily obeying and compliant think of how he prayed in the garden before going to the cross he prayed sweating blood if if it is your will take this cup let it pass and if it's your will bring it on he was complying he was obedient to the father full of mercy of course is Christ full of good fruits is he impartial is he sincere. The answer to all of these is yes yes yes Christ is the wisdom wisdom incarnate we know God and we know his love for us because we know Christ and we know what Christ has done for us. And you come back to Christ, and you come back to his purpose for being born, and you come back to his perfect life, and you come back to what the prophets had said about this man, and it's not all done in one conversation. So this is a broad study, but being a broad study, if you have any specific questions or thoughts or, you know, that, that you just want to get out there or, or ask, email them to me, because then I know, just like we've done in other classes, where it's a broader topic, and you have questions, then I know, like, oh, okay, so this is what, because we're all different, and we're going to have different things, different questions pop up. He helps us to soe the seed in that point planting where we have these little pockets of life where we have influence where we have the opportunity to share and He also uses us to plant seed in that broadcast scattering where everywhere we go we proclaim the good news and where it lands we don't know but we continue to soe because we are called to soe and we know because we have been promised that God's word as it is soe will do that which it is purpose for.
