“And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the river, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Jos 24:15

Ephesians #12
Eph 3:1-13, Col 1:26-27 - Dispensation of the mystery explains the uniqueness of Paul's teaching. Heb 3:1-6 compares Moses, steward over his "house" to Jesus in the new covenant. 3 distinctive: 1) personal indwelling of the Holy Spirit, 2) divine enabling, and 3) forgiveness of sin (Heb 10:17). Paul was the steward of the mystery (Eph 3:7).
