  1. Paul's Hallelujah Chorus in Eph 5.22-6.9 and why we need to see the parts!

    Paul's Hallelujah Chorus in Eph 5.22-6.9 and why we need to see the parts!

    We and He are ONE! This is the teaching in the key verse of Ephesians 5:32.  WE MUST SEE THE PATTERNS IN PAUL"S USE OF THE PROPHETIC RHETORICAL TEMPLATE. THEN WE SEE PAUL WAS TALKING ABOUT UNITY IN THE JOINT-BODY WITH CHRIST. Then, we see Paul's teaching on Christian spouses discipling one another!  Did Paul really have that many PATTERNS in the passage from Ephesians 5:22-6:9? Oh yes! Those who have missed these patterns act like the blind men who had a hard time describing an elephant. The blind men saw the parts: a wall, a tree trunk, etc. But they missed the living breathing mighty animal. Go deeper? Yes. See my book, "Beyond Eden" on Amazon available as a paperback, as an eBook and on Audible as an audio book! https://a.co/d/0bQ4HvLN  The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too.

  2. Horizontal not vertical submission in Christian relationships - Eph 5.22-6.9

    APR 19

    Horizontal not vertical submission in Christian relationships - Eph 5.22-6.9

    “We and He are one!” That is Paul's message in this beautiful but misunderstood passage in Ephesians 5:22-6:9. The center of Paul's message is 5:32 yet people get off track looking for subordination of wives in the home. Here we focus on the patterns and implications of Paul's message in the Greek text of this famous passage. We see three three verse numbers in Ephesians 5:19-21 but this is actually a parallelism of four parts: A and A prime are in 19a and 21. B and B prime are in 19b and 20. WE MUST TAKE THE TWO A SECTIONS TOGETHER. WHEN WE DO WE SEE THAT BELIEVERS SUBMIT TO THE TEACHING AND ADMONITION THEY RECEIVE FROM ONE ANOTHER. In the same way we insert this reciprocal action of building up one another into verse 22 where Paul is speaking about both spouses in a Christian home building up one another! Go deeper? Read the book "Beyond Eden" with more details and study guides as well for group work.   https://a.co/d/02oo5Rrk  The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C.
