Dr. Lynn Cohick discusses background information to the Letter to the Ephesians including authorship and the social and historical situation at Ephesus. We then dive into its core theology, the place of the Trinity, the explication of the gospel, “faith in Christ” vs. the “faithfulness of Christ”, and being “seated in the heavenly realms”. We move onto Jews and gentiles and the cross, the principalities and powers, the “mystery”, the church’s witness to the cosmic powers, ethics, household codes, wives and husbands and submission, and slavery.
I, Dennis, would love to hear from you. Please leave a comment or send me an email at thecharge.info@gmail.com
