The Purpose of the Church – Reclaiming our Biblical Roots – 2013 – Arkansas
This Spring 2013 conferene held in Arkansas is the first of a trilogy dealing with the role and purpose of the Church, the Rapture—our blessed hope, and staking the enigma out of Paul’s “mystery.”
“For the Lord has created a new thing in the earth—a woman shall encompass a mighty hero.” Jer 31:32

When we align ourselves with Christ we will be engaged in combat (Eph 6:10-20, Rom 13:8-14). Our test is that we refuse to give up, grow weary or faint (Eph 6:13). There is a battle to be won; there is a master plan for the Church -- for blessings and glory -- all of us are in it (Eph 6:10). There is provision for power "be strong in the Lord". There is armor for the conflict -- one offensive and 6 defensive weapons (Eph 6:10-20). Prayer is the way to put it on. There is enablement for resistance. There is enlightenment about the foe (2Co 11:3-15).
More than any book Ephesians reveals the blessings from God based on our relationship with Jesus Christ by grace through faith. Eph 1:3 is the a key verse. Other key verses by chapter include Eph 2:8 Eph 3:19 Eph 4:1 Eph 5:18 and Eph 6:10-11.
