Even here: "be imitators of God, as beloved children." Ephesians 5:1

[RandallBroad]

The key to this book is the restoration of the unity between man and God that was lost in the garden. This restoration of unity underlies the entire Bible though it is often overlooked in teachings and commentaries. This unity is rooted in God's grace and the faith of the believer and it was brought to fulfillment by the Cross.

Jesus is the completion of all things. Prayers.

Excellent work. Jesus is so loving and merciful. Thank you and all glory to our Lord and God.

Put on the whole armor of God! That's my favorite part of Ephesians❤

[gilwaa]

Ephesians shares the beautiful message of God’s master plan to have a people for his own pleasure. Much attention is often given to the various soteriological debates, the household codes, spiritual warfare, etc. And while those are important subjects, let us not forget that the whole point is the Father uniting all things in the Spirit through the precious blood of Jesus, to the glory and praise of God. Hallelujah!

To be in a world that everyone accepts and loves each other with unity is but I wanted the most all my life more than anything....heaven will be beautiful brethren such joy awaits us in our Lord praise His name!!!!

[WarriorofChrist]

God is absolutely amazing.
Now I understand what Christians really meant when they say God is everything....God LITERALLY is everything and I praise His love and power and perfect glory ❤️

[JRHorn]

Yes! To be like Jesus is the right behaving...be like siblings to others and let endearment be the thoughts and words and actions!
