Ephesians 4:1-16
We all have a part in the body of Christ – and we are all important
Don’t be slow to help and encourage others…jump in where you can
What is your vocation in the Lord?  Every Christian has a job to fulfill
Keep the peace, the unity, the love.
There is only one body…one Spirit of Christ.
Will you be concerned and involved enough to be a part of Church?
Don’t be just a Church attender, but a helpful member.
We only get one chance.  Death is final – but death doesn’t have to be bad.
Being a Christian is like being a waiter in a restaurant.
Who are you serving?  How are you helping?
Make sure your life is about helping the Church (remember that Church = people).
Speak the Truth in Love.
Watch out for just maintaining the status quo…seek to grow, and help others grow.
Direction for the body has to come from the head, which is Christ.
If you don’t do your part in Christ, you have a negative impact.
Parents want their children to have the best life they can give…
What about your desire for others in Christ?  Don’t be a slacker for Church.
