Functional Kingdom Participation

Amen

As Paul continues his journey towards Jerusalem, he stops near Ephesus to say goodbye to the elders of that community. He passionately exhorts them to guard their lives, remembering the example of his life among them.

One. Paul lived his life as a Missional Journey. (17-19)

Two. Paul lived his life in Authentic Community. (20-21)

Three. Paul lived his life as an act of Worship & Beauty. (22-24)

Four. Paul lived his life on the foundation of Meaning & Truth. (25-27)

He then commends them "to God and the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified." He wants them to continue participating in the life of the Kingdom as children of God.
