What stood out or challenged you in passage the preach?
Christians should live in unity. This is a theme that runs through the letter. What does “putting up with one another in love” [v2 LEB] look like? Do you find some people difficult? What should our attititude be?
How does v4 assume the doctrine of the trinity?
God in his grace and kindness gives us gifts [v7]. How can we use our gifts for the unity of the church?
Pastors and teachers are given to the church by God to equip the saints for service [vv12-13]. What can we do to maximise the effectiveness of the preaching and teaching in LCC?
Becoming a Christian means that we are to take off the “old man” [Adam] and put on the “new man” [Jesus] [vv22-24]. How does the Holy Spirit make this possible?
Read the passage again and note anything else that stands out or challenges you. Pray that the Holy Spirit would enable you to change and be more like Jesus and demonstrate the unity we have in him.
