Sermon by Pastor David Prince
1. Gospel Unity, Not Uniformity
Ephesians 4:11-12[11] And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and
teachers, [12] to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of
Christ,
Ephesians 4:11-12
2, Gospel Unity, Essential for Maturity
Ephesians 4:13-16
Grow Up in Christ (Ephesians 4:13-14)
until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
Ephesians 4:13
so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried
about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful
schemes.
Ephesians 4:14
Grow Up Truthing in Love (Ephesians 4:15-16)
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is
the head, into Christ,
Ephesians 4:15
from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it
is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it
builds itself up in love.
