|  | Christ May dwell in your hearts through faith. « Thread Started on Feb 12, 2008, 11:51pm » | |
Hey Guys,
I was just meditating on Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3 today and he prays that "Christ might dwell in their hearts through faith" They are obviously Christians so they don't need to "ask Jesus into their heart" (which interestingly isn't anywhere in the bible but that's another conversation ). But I was just wondering what Paul meant by this prayer, Did he want Jesus to dwell in a deeper way? I saw one of the teachers at my bible school at a smoothie place we were at and I asked him and he gave a really good answer that I can't fully remember. But what do you guys think?
For me now that I look at it in context I think it has to do with unity, and an abiding presence of Christ in their midst and their hearts as they know and walk in the Love of God. But let me hear what you think.
| Only when we are captured by an overwhelming sense of awe and reverence in the presence of God, will we begin to worship God in spirit and in truth.
If we only do what we've already done, we're only going to get what we've already got. There must be something more!!! |
