Discussion Questions: Sermon On Ephesians 4:1-12, The Church As Temple: Its Gifts And Graces

  • Why is it important to see the apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers as Christ’s gift to the church?
  • Why is it important to see that the work of shepherds and teachers (pastors) is to 1) equip or perfect the saints, 2) devote themselves to the work of ministry, and 3) build up the body of Christ? How does this view differ from the one that is common today (every member has a ministry)?
  • Are there apostles and prophets in the church today? And connected to this, do miraculous gifts remain active in the church today?
  • What are the members of the body of Christ to use their gifts for? 
  • Why is love the key ingredient?
