Ephesians 3:1-13

Intro: Share an experience you reconciled with people.

Questions:

1. Paul who was prisoned in Rome yet called himself the prisoner of Jesus

Chrsit for the sake of the Gentiles, what does that mean? How much am I

willing to give up my rigthts for the sake of the Gospel for others?

2. What is the mystery mentioned in verses 3, 4, and 6? What does the

mystery have to do with me?

3. In verse 8, Paul called himself the least of all God's people, and yet

he was called to preach to the Gentiles. What can be God's calling to me

in my life?

4. Read verse 10. How can God's manifold wisdom be known to the spiritual

beings in the heven realm through the church? What is the main act here

for the church? (different people are united in Christ). How can GSCC as

a church (and working with other churches) fulfill this role?

5. In verse 13, Paul asked Ephesians to be encouraged by Paul's suffering

for them. Recount an incidence that other's faith encouraged me.
