Author: Ron Christian
Summary#
United in Christ! - A Study of the Book of Ephesians is a Christian devotional and Bible-study work by Ron Christian that walks through the major themes of Ephesians with outlines, exposition, illustrations, and discussion questions. The book maintains that believers are richly blessed in Christ, chosen by God for holy living, redeemed through Christ’s sacrifice, and called into one united fellowship rather than divided by fear, pride, selfishness, or spiritual immaturity. Christian contends that the church is Christ’s body on earth and should display love, reconciliation, prayer, service, humility, peace, and spiritual strength through the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit. The study also addresses salvation by grace, the Christian’s former condition of spiritual death, the destruction of barriers between people, Christian virtues, family relationships, imitation of God, resistance to evil, and the armor of God. Its central message is that life in Christ creates a new people who are united with God and with one another, equipped for faithful living, and called to share the victory, peace, and grace found in Jesus Christ.
