We looked at Ephesians 2 in our combined 30th anniversary service on Sunday morning. This passage described our 'before' and 'after' states. Before we came to know Jesus, we were outsiders, with no hope for eternity. After Jesus saved us, we are insiders, citizens, belonging and with future hope. This has all kinds of implications for us, with one being the church. All in the church are equally important to God. All of us are involved in God's building project. We must maintain God's strategy when it comes to our church: staying faithful to God's message in the Bible, centred on the work of Jesus. Church growth and unity is not due to our cleverness or strategies but due to God's work among us. There is a lot to thank God for, and we should also pray for God's work among us now and into the future.
