Paul’s letter to the Ephesians—written from the prison cell of a man who was a criminal in the eyes of a God-hating world—teaches God’s people how to unite in the name of Christ, live for the glory of God, and live in the victory of Christ. In this epistle, Paul calls for the church to apply the truths of the gospel. His prayer is that God will cause the faithful to know Him and to know that Christ is sovereign Lord over all.
This detailed analysis of the letter to the Ephesians explores how Paul reminded believers of their status in Christ and encouraged them to live true to the calling God has given. It reveals how God proclaimed his ultimate plan to “unite all things in [Christ], things in heaven and things on earth,” and makes clear ways in which you can participate in spreading the Lord’s message to a world that needs it.
God’s plan has always been to build the church for His glory and to prove the greatness of His wisdom. The Prison Letter invites believers to understand how the church, as the body of Christ, is called to glorify God. This study of Ephesians seeks to encourage you, strengthen you, and inspire you to worship God.
