Opis

Synopsis:Ephesians speaks to our deepest questions about God: the redemptive plan of God from ages past now revealed; the work of Christ complwrittenete and effective now and for eternity; the power of the Holy Spirit to change lives and build a community. The clear message of Gods unfathomable grace establishes the believers hope and undergirds the call for faithful living. Down through the centuries, the clarion call to unity that permeates Ephesians has inspired and challenged the faithful to live out the promises found in Christ. This short letter speaks to the twenty-first centurys longing for friendship and wholeness.Endorsements:"Lynn Cohicks commentary on Ephesians provides a practical explanation and appropriation of the letter. She demonstrates that she is well-informed about the issues, sane in her judgments, effective in her communication, and that she cares about the lives of modern Christians. Her knowledge of the ancient world allows her to bring historical and sociological information to bear on the text and its interpretation. People seeking an easily accessible and non-technical treatment of Ephesians will enjoy this commentary."--Klyne SnodgrassPaul W.
