This document is a series of lessons from the book of Ephesians focused on finding strength through obedience to God. It discusses what it means to be in Christ and the blessings that come with it. Several lessons are outlined that cover topics like the mystery of Christ, unity in Christ, living as the new self, walking in love, marriage, and obedience in the workplace and home. The document encourages obedience in children, discipline from fathers, and serving others as serving Christ. It suggests the rewards of obedience are living long lives and receiving rewards later. The final lesson is on finding strength in battle.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective?

He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer.
