This conference was held in the spring 2013 in Colorado. It complements the two previous Bible conferences held in Arkansas and Northern Virginia.
In addition to being styled "an apostle to the Gentiles" (Rom 11:13), Paul could also be called the apostle of the Mystery. This "mystery" contained new revelation intended for a new people—the Church—living in a new age or dispensation of God’s plan.
"now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began, but now made manifest, and by the prophetic scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith …" Rom 16:25–26

Taking the Enigma Out of Paul’s Mystery – Colorado 2013

Ephesians #36

Ephesians #36

Walking worthy means walking in Love and light, exposing the darkness (Eph 5:8-14). "Walk circumspectly" means to "walk carefully in wisdom -- to live life God's way" (Eph 5:15-17). Redeeming the time mean living each moment in the light of eternity -- investing today to receive the profit in eternity (Eph 5:16). Illustration of filling by the Spirit in John 2:1-11: there was a conscious need and request (Joh 2:3), then a command (His word) and response of obedience (Joh 2:5-8), and a transformation (Joh 2:9-11). Religious leaders were not able to extinguish the light from Stephen (Acts 6:8-10). Filling related to church mission (Eph 1:22-23); filling related to individual believer characteristic (Eph 3:19-22); filling related to spiritual growth (Eph 4:19). "Filling" in Eph 5:18 refers to control, possession, quality, and filling a need. Our life will have 3 results: harmonious relations, a deep inner joy, and thankfulness.
