Eph. 4:11- 16 On a slide
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers,
(Why) 12 to equip (Who) his people for (What) works of service, (Why) so that the body of Christ may be
built up
(When) 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God
(Goal) and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
*It’s not how much of the Holy Spirit you have, it’s how much of you the Holy Spirit has you
14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every
wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
(Result) 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of
him who is the head, that is, Christ.
