Sermons onEphesians 4

2 Corinthians

• 11:49Ephesians 4:20

  …But if you have received the grace of God, if you truly are saved, then we should ask, can genuine Christians receive God's grace in vain? Well, Paul is not suggesting that true believers can lose their salvation. Ephesians 4.20, he says that you are sealed by the Holy Spirit for the day of redemption. The Holy Spirit is your down payment. Philippians 1.6, he says, he who has begun a good work in you is faithful to carry it to completion.

The Epistles of John

• 18:34Ephesians 4:29

  It has no place in your life. Ephesians 4.29 says this, no foul language should come from our mouth, but only what is good. He's not simply talking about cursing. He's saying, if idle words are coming from your mouth, we have no need of that. Except that which gives grace to those who hear. And let me say this, church, if we are excusing the ungodliness of other people in our ears, shame on us.

Kings and Kingdoms

• 13:27Ephesians 4

  He closed the book of God. He did what he saw fit and it led to adultery and it led to his murderous plot. And not only in David's life, right? We see in the New Testament, we are warned over and over again. Ephesians 4 verse 30, 1 Thessalonians 5, 19. Do not quench the spirit of God. How do we do that? We quench the spirit when we close our ears and we close our eyes to the word of Christ. When we say, Lord, I get it.

This is Church

• 19:34Ephesians 4

  So if you have been given a gift, a treasure to use, what happens when you serve? Well, Ephesians, also written by Paul, reminds us of what happens when you serve. Now let me remind you, ministry is not for the professionals. It's for the saints. Who's a saint? If you've given your life to Christ, that is you. So let's turn to Ephesians chapter 4. Paul was an apostle who loved the church.

• 20:06Ephesians 4

  And he says in Ephesians chapter 4, a very specific word to this church and every church. Beginning in verse 11, he's already spoken about gifts in Corinthians. Now he's speaking to people, positions. He says this, and Jesus himself gave some to be apostles. Some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors, and some teachers.

Solid Ground

• 19:41Ephesians 4

  He said this is a totally unbiblical image. See there is one more piece to the solid ground foundation of the church. So let's turn to Ephesians chapter 4. God has given his church pastors, teachers, elders. He has given them deacons. And he has given them this unique collection of people.

• 20:00Ephesians 4

  And he has given them this unique collection of people. In Ephesians chapter 4. Verse 11.

From Death to Life

• 3:05Ephesians 4

  The rest of my life is a P.S. to his great work. He said, Jesus has done so much for me. The rest of my life is a P.S. to his great work. That is the essence of Ephesians chapter 4. A sermon I've entitled, A Walk in Grace. It's God has done so much for us. We can't help. We can't help but live for him. So let's read the first six verses and then we'll read the last 16 verses later today.

• 3:27Ephesians 4

  So let's read the first six verses and then we'll read the last 16 verses later today. Join me in the word of God. Ephesians chapter 4. Therefore, Paul says, I, the prisoner of the Lord, urge you to live worthy of the calling you have received. So let's pause there. Everything that we read flows downhill from grace.

Troubled Heart

• 11:31Ephesians 4:30

  Only faith in Jesus Christ will give you the spirit of God. But I think equally devastating is to reject the spirit of God, to have the spirit of God and to reject or not listen to his voice in your life. We see in Ephesians that Paul says, it is possible for you to grieve the Holy Spirit in Ephesians 4.30. So it's possible for Christians to have the Holy Spirit.

• 1:25Ephesians 4

  …learn from the Word of God, who want to hear from our God says something. So praise be the glory of our Savior today. If you have your Bibles, and I hope you do, take your phones out, take your Bible out, and turn to Ephesians chapter 4. And we're continuing really a two-part series on what we call misdirection.

• 4:39Ephesians 4

  With that, let's read the word of God. Ephesians chapter four, beginning in verse 11. Ephesians 4:11. Ephesians in the New Testament, about halfway through written by the apostle Paul. And he says this, Jesus, God himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, equipping the saints for the work of the ministry to build up the body of Christ until we all.

• 16:33Ephesians 4

  Jesus says, if you want to be Mega Man, if you want to be great, Megas, then make yourself a slave. Make yourself a servant. There is only one who is great, and that is the great I am. Church, we serve because he is our model. He is our model. So with that, let's look at how we serve now. If we are to serve because Christ is our model, look at Ephesians 4, verse 11 now. Ephesians chapter 4. So you just continue in your New Testament.

  …who were faithful in leading their families. Because guess what? One man can't do it all. Amen? One staff can't do it all. Deacon body can't do it all. You're called a body for a reason. And God's put us together as Ephesians chapter four teaches us. First Corinthians chapter 12 teaches us. Romans chapter 12 teaches us that God has put the body together for a purpose, a purpose, and that is to represent the Lord Jesus. And I know that you're in that

  …direction and purpose, He calls them out. He shares truth with them. And then He expects them to go out and do what He's done. We talked about this in our Sunday school classroom. If you go back in the New Testament to Ephesians chapter 4, you will find that God has prepared good works for you beforehand for you to be a part of. So God's already planned your life for you. The problem is we don't want nobody planning our life. We want to plan our own…

• 37:09Ephesians 4:14

  Ephesians 4.14, as a result, we are no longer to be children tossed here and there by ways that are carried around by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by the craftiness and deceitful scheming. Revelation 2.14, if you don't believe a church struggles, but I have this against you, Jesus says to the church, that you have left your first love.
