In this portion, from 4:1 Paul begins to transition from the mystery of the gospel to the working out of the mystery of the gospel all the way through chapter 6. And inasmuch as these Ephesians were called with an holy calling, he entreats them, if they had any regard for him as a prisoner of Christ, that they would walk worthy of it, and directs to the manner in which they should act becoming it, with all humility, patience, forbearance, and love; seeking to preserve a spiritual harmony, unity, and peace among each other.

This passage is the last part of Paul’s parenthesis. In Ephesians 3:1, Paul began to tell his readers something, but then he got sidetracked onto a rabbit trail, which is found in Ephesians 3:2-13. The main idea of Paul’s parenthesis is the mystery that was revealed to him. Ephesians 3:1-5 explains that Paul was a Prisoner of the mystery, and in Ephesians 3:6, the Plan of mystery. The mystery is that God had joined the Jewish and Gentile believers into one body. Where before there was separation, now there was unity. The rest of the mystery is found in Ephesians 3:7-13. These verses are the continuation of Paul’s Parenthesis about the mystery revealed to him in Christ.

In today's passage, Paul hints at his state and condition as a prisoner, and at the afflictions he endured for the sake of the Gospel; and whereas he knew these would be objected to his ministry, and be discouraging to the saints, he chiefly insists on these two things; namely, to assert his office of apostleship, and observe the knowledge of divine mysteries, and gifts of grace bestowed on him, which he does with all modesty and humility; and also to exhort the saints to constancy and perseverance, notwithstanding his tribulations; for which purpose he puts up several petitions for them.

The apostle Paul has spent the first part of his letter to the Ephesians telling them who they are in Christ. Paul has described the many spiritual blessings that are found in Christ. You are chosen, adopted, redeemed, and sealed. Paul now moves forward in this section to describe to us what God wants us to have and what God wants us to know. So we will look for these things as we read the rest of Ephesians 1.

Ephesians 1:3-14 is a celebration of God, who from the beginning of times wrote the script and melody of human life, as well as the natural order of things. Creation’s music and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ reveals something of the attributes of God’s mystery. The mystery summons people to live together as siblings because Christ’s death and resurrection formed humanity into a new creation. More importantly, God’s mystery signals to all believers that God is not as impulsive as humans are, but that the divine nature of the creator is deeply intentional.

As Paul closes the letter to the Ephesians in Ephesians 6, he speaks of a great struggle that lies before every believer. Christian life is a struggle, a battle, a wrestling match, as Paul calls it in Ephesians 6:12, and so we literally exist as believers in a life-and-death struggle.

Luke concludes the book of Acts with Paul a prisoner in Rome, yet still “proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance” (Acts 28:31). Though he was held captive by Rome, and many of his hearers were held captive by unbelief, he knew that God’s word was not bound; and Paul was willing to endure anything if it would bring about salvation for the glory of God (2 Tim. 2:8-10).

The 27th chapter of Acts is the story of this long storm experience in Paul’s life. As we read Acts chapter 27 and on into chapter 28, it seems like the storm and adversity will never end. Though it seemed at times that they would not survive and that this storm would never end and that Paul would never reach his destination, through it all, Paul seems to have exhibited a faith that sustained him through the ordeal of being a prisoner and through the ordeal of going through several weeks of stormy weather. In fact, in the midst of their darkest hour, Paul rose up and said clearly and confidently in verse 25, “I believe God.” Series: The Acts Of Christ And The Apostles Speaker: Benjamin Mathew Scripture: Acts 27 Notes: PPT Acts 27 Paul Believes GOD.pdf https://1drv.ms/b/s!AtZn-btopJYtuDHQOoVKxD9Xwymt?e=FpR96M
In this portion, Paul speaks on his own defense having been mobbed by the Jews, arrested in the Temple, accused of being a plague, acting as a ringleader, starting a riot and been persecuted by Ananias. – Here, in legal proceedings he is responding to Tertullus, the High Priest’s prosecution attorney. He sets out to his adjudicator his devotion to Judaism, before denying unprovable false-charges, and then alluding to his conversion. He proceeds to make this statement about clearing his own conscience. Series: The Acts Of Christ And The Apostles Speaker: John Paul Scripture: Acts 24 Notes:
