As I said last week in Sunday Fellowship I have the joy of finishing the teaching on Ephesians chapter 6 and concluding our teachings on the book of Ephesians. Last Sunday we covered the revelation and mystery Paul describes in Eph 6:1-9 involving slave and master identities in their flesh. We concluded the teaching with this thought in mind!
This is why he didn’t condone nor condemn slavery! He knew who they were Spiritually and encouraged them to see the other as they were seen and known by God the Father and Christ as Sons and brothers in the Spirit. Just look at what Paul said to Philemon concerning Onesimus. Philemon was encouraged to see Onesimus “Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved” What a powerful revelation of their Spiritual Identities!
The idea of learning to live in your new Spiritual Identity is not confined to husbands, wives or children but also to slaves and masters. It extends to all those who have received Spiritual Birth, no matter where they find themselves in the social structure of this world. What Paul was communicating was Spiritual equality. They were all equal in Christ as Sons of the Father!
I will continue this week’s teaching by looking at Eph 6: 10-20, not as MMR from the outside but in the mystery and revelation seeing from the inside out. So, what is the whole armor of God? Is there a process to get the whole armor of God? What does it mean to put it on? Lastly, is the act of putting it on our armor and wearing it a daily process? Let’s talk about it…
